Welcome to The Progress Report 2.0 - a repository of tools and data for anyone interested in New Zealand politics.
The first version of The Progress Report was a blog I ran up until 2014, with excellent contributions from James Caygill, Keir Leslie and other guest posters. If you're interested in any of that content, it has been archived by the National Library.
Following the closure of The Progress Report I built a new site, polled.co.nz to host some of the caucus calculators and other tools I had been working on.
This version of The Progress Report has been rebuilt from the ground up and should hopefully be far more flexible and robust. If you find any bugs or issues, or have any ideas for new data or features, please get in touch.

I've made a few minor changes to my candidate database.
I've also made a host of backend changes which make it far easier to update the candidates and party lists - so it should be simpler and faster to keep my database as up to date as possible ahead of the next election. As always, if you think I've missed any data (eg others announcing they are standing or not standing) - please let me know!
