A second poll today with good signs for the left bloc

The latest 1 News Verian Poll has Labour up four percent to 33 percent - right on the heels of National, who were down three percent, to 34.

The Greens were steady on 10 percent, while Te Pati Maori fell three percent, to four.

Meanwhile Act went up one to nine percent, and NZ First fell one percent to five percent.

That would give the coalition 60 seats in parliament, one less than the left bloc.

In the preferred Prime Minister stakes, Chris Luxon has fallen two percent to 22, while Chris Hipkins was up two percent to 17 percent.
