Poll: Who's going to win on Saturday?

**Hitcher** · 14th September 2005, 20:11

That's the General Election I'm referring to.

I'm not interested in who you're going to vote for. I'm interested in who you think will win. Understood?

National I hope. But whats got my attention is who will win the ever so important seat of Tauranga? Bob the Builder or Winnie?

I'd say Winnie since Bob's got an itchy crotch!

But if Bob wins, It will just go to show what a crock of shit our elections are. It will be a sad loss for this country if you loose somebody like Winston Peters who stands for alot of credible policies and who pushes worthwhile issues, for another old perverted and sex minded loser.

Go National!!!

Gulp. Good spot. Shudders visibly. Rep awarded...

I don't think we'll know on Saturday or even Sunday for that matter. Depends who gets the most seats out of the Greens or the Maori Party. Either one could go with National.................yes that's what I said. The way Brash has been trying to buy his way into power he is just as likely to scrap Nationals 'one people' policy to become PM.

But since you asked I'd still go with Labour and the status quo.

When I read the title of this thread, I thought there must have been some sporting event on this weekend...

I think a few things.... but I don't think about politics.

I don't like the politics of it all.

I think you may be right. Not because of the itchy crotch but Tauraunga's pretty consevitive and not likely to go for an unknown. Mind you if Winnie goes it's the end of an era in NZ politics. Like him or loath him it wont be the same with him gone.

I'd like to say "Don't discount ACT." But I think they're a gone-burger, unless Rodney pulls off an amazing result in Epsom.

The Maori Party winning seats will result in an "overhung" Parliament. And there were already too many politicians with their snouts in the taxpayer's purse...

I really don't know,and haven't decided myself yet.I think most want to see a change,we've had Labour a long time now and they get blamed for all our ills,when they are just applying policies that have to be confronted in the modern world.....but no one trusts Brash,he's weak and obviously happy to try any shady trick,he's certainly not a prefered Leader....but they may get enough votes to swing it...

I agree. National will win. Most people won't look beyond the tax cuts. I actually feel a bit sorry for Don Brash. Six or nine months on, when it all turns to custard, who will get the blame? I doubt that by then he will have the political savvy to avoid the knife in the back.

**Beemer** · 14th September 2005, 22:58

I reckon National will win - Labour has forgotten that there are heaps of people out there who don't breed and therefore want something just for THEM! As for Winnie, think his latest bout of nastiness ("who, me?") will backfire.

As for the Maori Party - I feel a spate (or should that be crate?) of Tui ads coming up if any of them get their feet under the table.

**ManDownUnder** · 15th September 2005, 00:45

Traditional has it (in international election circles) that in this position the incumbent will win, but by a very slim margin, and the FOLLOWING election (2008) will result in a masive victory the other way

Here endeth my predicition!

Watch this space and gasp in awe as my thoughts come into reality!

I'd like to say national, but I think that Labour will sneak in.

I have considered voting for ACT, but I kinda feel i'd be throwing my vote away....and that'd suck lol

Hahahaha. I think hell would have to freeze over before National went with Greens.
