Yesterday a Roy Morgan New Zealand Poll for November 2023 showed new Prime Minister Christopher Luxon and the National-led Government (National, ACT & NZ First) with a majority of 58% support for November, up 5.2% points from the mid-October election.
Support for National was virtually unchanged at 37.5%, down 0.6% points from the election, while support for ACT increased 3.9% points to 12.5% and support for NZ First was up 1.9% points to 8%.
In November support for the defeated Labour-Greens-Maori Party Parliamentary Opposition was at only 36%, down 5.6% points from the election.
Support for Labour dropped 5.9% points to 21% (the lowest ever recorded in a Roy Morgan Poll). However, support for the Greens increased 0.9% points to 12.5% while support for the Maori Party was down 0.6% points to 2.5%.
A further 6% of electors supported a minor party outside Parliament, up 0.4% points from the election. This includes 3.5% (up 1.3% points) who support The Opportunities Party, 0.5% (up 0.3% points) who support the New Conservatives and a further 2% who support other minor parties including Democracy NZ, New Zealand Loyal, NewZeal and the Aotearoa Legalise Cannabis Party.
The current level of support for National/ ACT/ NZ First would translate to 74 seats in Parliament out of 123.
