Morgan Poll Update – Page: Online : 24-Jun-15

A New Zealand Roy Morgan Poll on voting intention, which was carried out in June 2015, shows that support for the ruling National Party has fallen by 4.5 per cent to 49.5 per cent since May. Support for the Labour Party has risen by 0.5 per cent to 26 per cent, and support for a potential Labour/Greens alliance has increased by three per cent to 39 per cent. Roy Morgan Research executive chairman Gary Morgan says the National Party lost support in June following New Zealand’s slowest GDP growth (0.2%) in two years during the March quarter. He notes that the ANZ-Roy Morgan New Zealand Consumer Confidence Rating has fallen for the last two months, to 119.9 in June. However, New Zealand Government Confidence was at 135.5 in June, with 62.5 per cent of New Zealand electors saying the nation is "heading in the right direction".
