National now has the same level of support as it did at the last election. The Horizon poll has Act on just 3.7 percent support, National on 37.7 percent, United Future on 1.1 percent and the Maori Party on 2.4 percent. Labour is on 23.9 percent, the Green Party on 9.9 percent and New Zealand First on 7.4 percent. When possible coalitions are factored in, the gap between the two potential governments narrows to 3.7 percent. While National has shed the lift in support it received after the Canterbury earthquakes - from 41.2 percent to 37.7 percent, Labour support also fell, from 27 percent in March to 23.9 percent.
