Opportunity would be foolish to count their chickens just yet.4.6% in the 1News-Verian poll is an excellent result four-and-a-half months out from the election…

4.6% is a protest vote, not a movement. Give it a few months and they'll be back to 2% like the rest of the flash-in-the-pan parties.
it's different this time. People are actually listening. You'll see.
I actually think Opportunity could be something different. Young people are sick of the same old choices. Just saying.
nah get stuffed. They'll fold like every other minor party.
Used to be a National voter but nah, they've lost the plot. Might give Opportunity a go this time.
here. National's been useless since Key left.

Wait… people actually read the 1News-Verian poll? Who cares about a poll in June 😂
Bloody pollsters. Remember when Colin got it wrong? Yeah nah, I'll wait til election night.
call but polls are all we've got right now. Sad but true.
Whatever gets the other lot out I'm for it. Just want SOME change tbh.
Heather's got a point though. People get excited too early and then reality hits. Seen it a hundred times.
Opportunity or not, the real issue is housing and cost of living. Who's actually gonna fix that?
lol you think any party will fix housing? Good one.
bit rich coming from a right wing columnist. Opportunity is the only one talking about serious tax reform.
reform that actually helps workers, not just landlords. That's the difference.
I dunno mate, 4.6% is pretty good for a party that doesn't exist yet. Let's see what happens.
Exactly. Early days but promising. Fingers crossed.
