Poll: National support slips to 49pc

The gap between National and Labour may've tightened but National could still form a Government if an election was held today.

New figures out from Roy Morgan show support for National slipped 4 points to 49 per cent.

At the same time, Labour was up 4 to 36 per cent.

But John Key's Government remains a clear favourite, with support for the Maori Party, Act and United Future all strong.

Labour's allies, including the Greens and New Zealand First are all down.
