A household policy-impact calculator, not a "which party matches you" quiz. Adjust your details below and the estimates update for every party.
This is an independent, unofficial tool — it isn't produced by, endorsed by, or affiliated with the Electoral Commission or any political party. It covers the seven parties currently represented in Parliament; other parties may also be contesting this election. Figures are estimates for illustration, built from each party's own published policy material — always check the source links below before relying on a number.
These numbers are used to work out which policies apply to you and by how much.
Fill in your household above, then press "See my estimate" — your numbers will appear here and update live as you change any answer.
Ranked from most to least favourable for your household, based on the policies that can be reliably converted into a dollar figure. This order is personal to the numbers you entered above — it changes as you change them, and it isn't a ranking of the parties in general. Tap a row for the breakdown.
This is a household-impact model, not a voting recommendation. It converts published party policy into an estimated annual dollar effect wherever the policy detail allows a defensible calculation.
Where a policy is real but published detail doesn't support a reliable household figure, it's labelled not quantified rather than assumed to be zero.
The number next to each party is a quantified annual cashflow estimate — it isn't a forecast of house prices, public-service quality, or the wider economy.
Stays not quantified until the party publishes household-level tax parameters precise enough for a defensible calculation.
Income-tax changes are quantified. Wealth, inheritance, corporate, bank and landlord measures are listed but only priced where household inputs support it.
Free GP visits, the public-transport fare cap, and the proposed investment-property capital gains tax are quantified where your inputs allow it. Other policies aren't assigned an arbitrary figure.
The student-loan repayment-rate change and KiwiSaver contribution changes are quantified, with KiwiSaver wealth kept separate from current cashflow. Its newly-announced openness to splitting up Foodstuffs isn't quantified — see below.
The $14,000 tax-free threshold and the Kiwi Kids Grant are quantified where you're eligible. Its Foodstuffs break-up policy and other cost-of-living policies remain unquantified.
No dollar value is invented where the published policy doesn't support a household-specific calculation.
The income-tax change, Citizen's Income and Land Value Tax are quantified. KiwiSaver 2.0 effects are shown separately, split between cashflow and retirement wealth.
