Completely Non-Scientific Election Prediction
For what it's worth here are the numbers I'm picking for tomorrow night.
National - 51
Labour - 51
NZF - 6 (Winston holds Tauranga but party is below 5% threshold)
Greens - 8
UF - 3
Progressive - 1
Maori - 3
ACT - 0 (joining the dole queue on Monday)
Total number of seats is 123 based on overhang minor parties winning electorate seats.
On that basis:
The National/NZF/UF group holds 60 seats.
The Labour/Greens/Progressive group also holds 60 seats.
And the Maori Party holds the balance of power.
Which in turn means another election before Christmas and we get to do all of this all over again.
And here's a tip for the Banks Peninsula electorate ... it could very well go to National.
