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 If you're interested in any of that content, it has been archived by the National Library.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.
Following yesterday's minor Labour reshuffle and earlier significant changes from National, I've updated their party lists to match their current caucus rankings followed by any unelected candidates in the order they were on the 2023 party list.
These caucus rankings are a strong indicator of the lists the parties will adopt for the next election - so they're a very good starting point if you're using our MMP Calculator or Labour and National caucus calculators.
The Greens, ACT, NZ First and Te Pāti Māori don't appear to have made any changes to their caucus rankings from their party lists, so there have been no updates for any of those parties.
