      Oddly, this was presented as a “compelling lead” by RadioNZ last night, but when you look at the seat count, its very very close indeed.

      Also, why the hell are they still listing Christian Heritage? They shut down years ago…

      Two points about the poll. figures and method.

      A telephone poll seems to me would need a strong mobile sample, or miss out on critical sectors of the community. Youth, employed, busy,Maori would all be affected by any preference for land line.
      The relationship between the Labour “votes” and the uncommitted seem very closely related. That could point to a section of the sample that describes itself to be uncommitted mid term, but Labour voting come election.
