New Zealand election remains on a knife edge — the key takeaways

Résumé détaillé

The results in the New Zealand election are anything but clear with the two major parties — Labour and National — in the tightest of races.

In the words of Labour leader Chris Hipkins, "New Zealand has spoken", but exactly what it has said is anything but clear.

The two major parties — Labour and National — are in an exceptionally close race, showing that every vote really does count.

The National-ACT-NZ First bloc is holding on to a projected 67 of 131 seats, one more than the 66 needed for a majority, and for the moment looks to be in a marginally stronger position to form government.

But the final results are likely to come down to the count of special votes, which won't be completed for weeks.
