Opportunity is pitching itself as an alternative kingmaker to
Winston Peters and New Zealand First for the 2026 election. But is
the kingmaker scenario really that common across 10 MMP elections?
Peter Dunne, who has seen the inside of many post-election

smaller parties play in our elections, the challenge that awaits
Opportunity as it hovers around the 5% threshold, and whether major
parties at 30% is an aberration or the new normal.At Large with
