But Herald Poll Tells a Different Story
The NZ Herald today leads with the results of the latest DigiPoll. These are a bit different from the Roy Morgan result - see below. National is still in the lead on 47.5% to Labour's 38.7%, but the gap has narrowed. The Greens are the star performer on 9.5%. The result for NZ First is similar to the Morgan poll - support slipping, and below the key 5% threshold.
