Labour in front in Herald Poll

The NZ Herald poll shows Labour back in the lead by 6%. Some of this appears to be at the expense of the Greens whom would not make it back on this poll. Many younger Green voters may well be enticed to now vote Labour, and the Greens may well face oblivion if they lose too much support.

This poll leaves the Maori Party and NZ First as kingmakers. Joy. A Labour/Maori Party Government would result in a 12 – 15 year spell in Opposition after one term I suspect.

UPDATE: NBR also has a 6% lead for Labour.
