- National recorded 34 percent, Labour 29 percent, the Greens 12 percent and New Zealand First 8 percent, the party’s highest result since September 2017.
- If an election had been held on the polling day, the right bloc of National, ACT and New Zealand First would have had 63 seats, enough to form a coalition, while Labour, the Greens and Te Pāti Māori would have held 58 seats; the right bloc had 64 seats in April.
- Positive views of the economy rose by two points to 41 percent, while negative views remained unchanged at 21 percent.
