    Minor conservative parties could pull support from the right bloc this election

    Minor conservative parties could pull support from the right bloc this election


    A Taxpayers' Union Curia poll suggests National and Act could win the 61 seats needed to form a government.

    It's while former National MP Alred Ngaro's announced a new Christian Party, called New Zeal.

    Newstalk ZB Political Editor Jason Walls says he won't get into Parliament -- but might peel support away from National.

    He says given the gap between the left and right is tight -- between 60 and 61 seats -- votes for New Zeal, Democracy New Zealand and the New Conservatives could make an impact.
