Work out who wins the election

Using the Elections NZ calculator, you can work out how the next Parliament might look - and who would form the Government - depending on how the public vote on November 8.

You can estimate the total number of MPs each political party would receive by typing in the number of party votes or the percentage of the party vote for each party.

Then hit the button and the calculator will work out how many MPs each party would have.

Then the fun begins - working out a likely coalition if no one party has enough MPs to form a government on its own.
