This month’s results are compared to the last Taxpayers’ Union-Curia Poll conducted in March 2025, available here at www.taxpayers.org.nz/march25_nztupollsuhg
The combined projected seats for the Centre-Right of 64 is up 6 seats from last month. The combined seats for the Centre-Left is down 5 to 57. On these numbers, the Centre-Right bloc could form a Government.
National remains the same as last month on 42 seats, while Labour is down 5 seats to 37. The Greens are up 2 seats to 14, and ACT is up 3 to 13 seats. New Zealand First is up 3 seats on last month to 9, while Te Pāti Māori is down 2 seats to 6.
Commenting on the results, Taxpayers’ Union Spokesman James Ross said:
“The Coalition have been taking a beating in the polls since December, but their fortunes appear to be improving.”
“This month the economy crept out of recession, and Chris Bishop’s sweeping, pro-growth RMA reforms were announced. It’s no coincidence that voters are beginning to swing back behind the Government.”
“This Government’s chances of re-election are still very much up in the air. But if there’s one clear message from the polls, it’s this: growth gets votes, stagnation doesn’t.”
“Budget 2025 is less than 50 days away. Kiwis will want to see high-impact, high-value reforms like Full Capital Expensing to boost productivity and lift living standards.”
The poll was conducted by Curia Market Research Ltd for the NZ Taxpayers’ Union. It is a random poll of 1,000 adult New Zealanders and is weighted to the overall adult population. It was conducted by phone (landlines and mobile) and online between 29 March and 01 April 2025, has a maximum margin of error of +/- 3.1%.

Sorry but the polls are never going to change much while lacklustre Luxon is the leader of National, and sadly that means that Labour may still have of chance of snatching victory in coalition with the looney left.
Unless he gets a personality transplant in the next few months he must be replaced with someone who will have time to establish their position before the next election.
As per Luxons plan, the polls are turning.
Inflation is tamed, education fixes have been implemented, roads are being repaired, gangs have been subdued, and international trade is flourishing....
And that's in just 18 months.
The really good news is planned to be delivered in the next 18 months and I can't wait!
