A constitutional issues poll

've blogged at the details of a poll by ResearchNZ on constitutional issues. Pleased to see 58% support for a four year term, but that is not the surprising result.

If NZ does adopt a written constitution, 58% said they support incorporating the principles of the into it, with only 35% opposed.

I'm a bit surprised by that level of support. Mind you if you asked along the lines of “Do you think the Supreme Court should be able to down laws that it finds are inconsistent with the Treaty of “, you may get a somewhat different result.
