Poll: Do you think National will be out after one term?
New political polling has the National Party headed towards one term in power, with a majority thinking the country is on the “wrong track”, disapproving of the Government’s performance and a near majority believing it is time to “give another party a go”.
The Talbot Mills polling for commercial clients, obtained by The Post, is similar to some other polls in recent months in that it shows a marginal Labour-led coalition could govern, if an election were to produce these results. Talbot Mills is also Labour’s pollster.
