The Polls that the Media are Ignoring
Roy Morgan released a poll in late January and another one on February 7.
Both polls had the National/ACT combination ahead of Labour/Greens
National now ahead of Labour
The poll also had the National party on 35% and Labour on 33% , the first time since pre COVID days that National are ahead.k of Labour

ACT are on 13.5% with the Greens 10.5%
Just like the poll released on January 31, which also had the National/ACT combo ahead, virtually none of the media have covered this poll. Last months poll linked below

The last 2 Roy Morgan polls have Labour and the Greens out of Government
These Roy Morgan polls certainly make the Reid Research poll out this week appear to be a rogue poll rather than a sign of the mood of the electorate.
Given the events of recent times 33% is more believable than 44% when it comes to support for Labour
