This week the Sunday Panel has had a bit of a rebrand.

This week's Election Panel features Political Commentator Brigette Morton and Former Labour Minister Kris Fafooi discussing the ins and outs of this election:

What caused the blue wave that swept the country? Will the special votes change anything? 

How will Labour fare as the opposition? Will Luxon's business background give him an edge when negotiating with Winston Peters? 

The votes - how do they break down, the electorates, and how did the parties fare?

A tale of two polls - but there's just one answer.  

Newshub-Reid Research and 1News-Verian have released their last opinion surveys before election night on Saturday.  

Both suggest the only viable coalition is National, paired with New Zealand First and ACT - but the margins are narrowing. 

Political Commentator Brigette Morton told Kate Hawkesby that the election is shaping up to be about getting the vote out. 

Advanced numbers are currently sitting behind what was predicted, and there’s been much discussion about the soft and undecided votes. 

The problem with the polls, Morton said, is that for them to actually matter the parties have to get out and get every single vote they can.
