New Zealand is heading toward a closely contested general election on Nov. 7, with opposition Labour ahead of Prime Minister Christopher Luxon’s National Party in one of the latest opinion polls.

An RNZ-Reid Research poll released Tuesday put Labour, led by Chris Hipkins, at 30.8%, compared with 25.9% for National, its weakest showing since the 2020 election, local media reported.

The Greens stood at 14.8%, New Zealand First at 10.6%, ACT at 9% and the Opportunity Party at 5.5%.
