With newly invigorated blogness happening, time for a new poll - which will now be renewed weekly. I promise.
This one's a simple one. Have you decided who your going to vote for? I know I have...
With all the madness of silly season almost in full swing it's interesting to take a look at how many people decide who to vote for (and sometimes also whether to vote) over what happens during the next 52 days (and counting). And with MMP that can have a huge impact on governing arrangements after the election.
On another similar note, a general whinge about the importance placed on polling data. It becomes an obsession in the media, and leads to what Nicky Hager calls "horse racing politics". It is a week to week commentary about who did what and how that effected their polling (even if it is relatively unreliable data), rather than the analysis we so desperately lack about what each party's policies are and how that will effect the country. But of course an election campaign focused on policy would be too much to ask for...
And, back to the matter at hand, maybe some of you undecideds are waiting for more policies to be announced perhaps?
