Swing seat Maungakiekie reacts to Jacinda Ardern's resignation

Some people in one of the country's most marginal seats believe Labour has essentially handed National the 2023 election following the shock resignation of the Prime Minister. Maungakiekie, taking in suburbs in Auckland like Penrose, Royal Oak and Mt Wellington has been one of our more closely fought electorates. In 2017, it elected a National MP. In 2020, a Labour MP. Jonty Dine gauged the mood of the electorate.
