Roy Morgan’s New Zealand Poll for January 2025 shows the National-led Government (National, ACT & NZ First) on 50% (down 1.5% points), still clearly ahead of the Labour-Greens-Maori Party Parliamentary Opposition on 46.5% (up 1.5% points). There were changes in the composition of support for the National-led Government with National up 1.5% points to 32.5%; support for ACT dropped 4% points to 9% and support for NZ First increased 1% point to 8.5%, its highest level of support since the 2023 New Zealand Election. For the Parliamentary Opposition, support for Labour increased 2.5% points to 28.5% but support for the Greens dropped 2% points to 11.5%. This is the lowest level of support for the Greens since the 2023 Election. Support for the Maori Party increased 1% point to 6.5%. A further 3.5% (unchanged) of electors supported a minor party outside Parliament. The survey results for January would lead to 62 seats (down six seats from the election) being won by the National/ ACT/ NZ First governing coalition compared to 58 seats (up three seats) being won by the current Labour/ Greens/ Maori Party Opposition. This New Zealand Roy Morgan Poll on voting intention was conducted by telephone – both landline and mobile – with a New Zealand-wide cross-section of 885 electors from 2 to 26 January. Meanwhile, the Roy Morgan Government Confidence Rating increased by 6.5pts to 89 in January.
