Clint Smith: Polls aren't as important as you'd think (1)
Published 4 months, 2 weeks ago
Description
The Prime Minister's leadership within his own party is being questioned after he didn't fare well in a Taxpayers' Union poll this week.
It has National down 2.9 points to 28.4% - but most notably, it suggests that the centre-left bloc could form a government in November. It'll be very tight though, with 61 seats for the left and 59 for the right.
Luxon sits at 21% for preferred prime minister, while Hipkins is at 22.7%.
