This looks at how each party did with advance voting compared to the voting on the day. Two thirds advance voted and one third voted on the day.
National got almost exactly the same proportion in advance votes as E-Day votes. They had the smallest variation.
Labour and Greens did around 3% worse on E-Day as Advance. So it looks like they were better at getting their supporters to vote early but not as good getting them out on the day.
ACT and NZF did around 2% better on E-Day than Advance, so that could be last minute tactical voting?
TOP did 1.5% better on E-Day than Advance, so may have got the last minute undecideds.
Once we know special votes I will add them on also.
