The Mike Hosking Breakfast

Green Party Co-Leader Chlöe Swarbrick isn't taking her, or her party's, success for granted.
The Greens are currently sitting on 13.3%, with 15 safe seats, including Swarbricks own Auckland Central electorate.
She told Mike Hosking she's never taken anything for granted – the party worked really hard, and she feels it's an absolute honour and privilege to represent the people of her home and community.
The left bloc is currently sitting behind the right, but Swarbrick says there are a number of different variables they'll have to pay attention to as things get washed up and they get a clearer picture of the full totals.

ACT Leader David Seymour says he's stoked to be leading Epsom, despite a late push by National's Paul Goldsmith.
He's sitting at 35.9% with 40.7% of the vote counted, ahead of Goldsmith on 29.5%.
He told Mike Hosking it's looking like we won't get a result tonight in terms of who forms a government, but conversations with Opportunity may need to happen, despite National's reticence.

Labour's nudged ahead of National, with just over 30 percent of the vote counted so far.
Labour is on 29.9 percent, while National is on 29.4 percent.
The party's campaign chair, Kieran McAnulty, says it's 'too early' to get excited, but votes are inching away in Labour's favour.
"When I saw the first numbers come in, I thought - that's too high for National. But who knows in these things? So you're not going to make that prediction."
