Take the data
Every dataset behind the site, as plain files you can check yourself — 18 files across 7 datasets. The JSON is byte-for-byte what the site reads. In the CSVs, a value a source did not report is an empty cell, never a zero and never filled in — the same rule on the page as in the download.
Polls
Party donations
Each party's 2025 annual return: Part A total, the named donors where they reconcile, and how each return was read.
One row per named donor (donations over $5,000), for the parties whose donor list reconciled to their printed Part A total.
MPs' interests
Party policy
Expenses
Parliamentary Service travel and accommodation, by quarter and by member.
One row per member per quarter. Empty where a category was not reported — never zero.
Department of Internal Affairs ministerial travel, by quarter and by minister.
One row per minister per quarter, published separately from MP travel because it is a separate bill.
Advertising
Google political-ad spend for New Zealand from the Ad Transparency bundle, by party and top advertiser.
Meta (Facebook/Instagram) political-ad spend from the Ad Library snapshot, by party and top advertiser.
One row per platform per party. Google and Meta are kept as separate rows — they are different platforms, not one total.
Seat projection
The inputs to the seat projection: the 120-seat house, the locked electorates per party, the Monte Carlo seed and the scenarios. The projected ranges are computed from the polls.
The electorate seats each party is taken to hold going in, before the list-seat allocation.
