There are normally 120 seats in parliament but because the Te Pati Maori's four seats from constituencies exceeded its share of the national popular vote, the system calls for creating additional proportional seats to even out representation. This will alter the final seat tally. Prime Minister Chris Hipkins has tried to re-engage with those voters, refocusing on what he termed"bread-and-butter issues", but was unable to gain traction in the polls.
Special votes have historically made slight changes to the election outcome, adding seats for the left and taking them away from the right-leaning bloc.
