Curia’s Polling Newsletter – March 2017

The newsletter summary is:

There were three political voting polls in March – a One News Colmar Brunton, a Newshub Reid Research and a Roy Morgan.

The average of the public polls sees National 16% ahead of Labour in March, down 3% from February.

 The current seat projection is centre-right 58 seats, centre-left 52 which would see NZ First hold the balance of power.

We show the current New Zealand poll averages for party vote, country direction and preferred PM compared to three months ago, a year ago, three years ago and nine years ago. This allows easy comparisons between terms and Governments.

In the United States Trump’s net approval has dropped 11% in March. His failure to get a health care bill introduced saw his healthcare rating drop 18%.

 In the UK Theresa May has a net approval of +13% compared to 41% for Jeremy Corbyn.

In Australia Labour remain well ahead of the Coalition.

In Canada the Conservatives have now closed the gap with the Liberals to 5%, compared to 14% a year ago.

We also carry details of polls on superannuation, Labour leadership, housing, immigration, and the normal business and consumer confidence polls.
