Looks to me that it my come down to how the greens and NZ1st go - didn't believe that TV3 poll the other day.
With the way polls overseas have "predicted" outcomes recently, who knows
Would be a turn up if either Labour or National could govern on their own - not very likely though
An excellent panel discussion on tv tonight. Jack Tame ran it well. Hands down winner for pure logic- David Seymore
A lot of the polling would have been conducted earlier in the week, perhaps before the effect that would have resulted from Labour's tax policy review and implementation timing reversal.
I am guessing that effect could be double edged. Some would not like a vacillating leader; others would see it as a cynical change to get more votes; yet others would see it as a sensible change to give more time to get any tax reform right.
Each polling organisation have their biases. I prefer to look at the trend from previous polls from the same company.
I haven't really understood all the excitment around the polls - only one matters and this is a week away.
I don't make my decision on who to vote for based on what others might think so polls don't influence me.
Many others are just sheep?
Also believe it or not, a few voters understand how MMP works. Voting for marginal parties without a likely electoral seat may be a wasted vote. In the case of the greens, if they only reached 4.99% that's a hell of a lot of wasted votes. Then again because of the rounding system any vote may be a wasted vote.
