National leader Judith Collins says she does not believe the election and her party can still win the election.
He said the polls were wrong on Donald Trump’s 2016 victory, on Brexit and on the latest Australian general election, during a meeting with Stuff on Wednesday.
Collins said a 1 News / Colmar Brunton poll last week, which showed National no way to power, and a corporate poll by Labor pollster UMR, which showed the party was 29 percent, did not match his poll. internal or the feeling on the ground.

“It’s certainly different from what I’m seeing,” Collins said.
“There is a tremendous amount of support for us.”
“I just don’t believe in the polls because it was bad on Brexit, it was bad on Trump, it was bad on [Australian Prime Minister] Scott Morrison, “Collins said.
Collins also directly addressed voters who felt National was not ready to govern after so much internal turmoil this year.
“I think people are obviously wondering what has happened because we’ve had leader changes in the last year, but actually, so did Labor before the last election,” Collins said.
“People know that when I say that I am going to do something, I will do it.”
Collins said he would like to write a follow-up book of his memoirs, Do not throw blows, eventually, but you may not have time for a while.
When asked if anyone in his group should be concerned about this book, Collins objected, saying that he had been “pretty nice” to people in his last publication.
“I thought it was a lot of fun last time when I announced that I was writing a book last October, a lot of people were worried, but I thought it had been very nice, but you can see some things there.”
Collins has been campaigning tough this week against a Green Party wealth tax that the Labor Party has repeatedly scrapped.
Collins said again Wednesday that the Labor Party was being “fake” and that the party would back down during negotiations with the Greens.
When asked if that meant that he would equally yield to ACT party policies during the talks, Collins replied:
“I am a much stronger person.”
Collins will face Labor leader Jacinda Ardern in her final live debate on Thursday.
