National: Could work with New Zealand First, Act, Maori Party, United Future and Conservatives. Won't work with Labour, the Greens or Internet-Mana.
Green Party: Has always opposed giving confidence and supply to National, except in the 2011 election, when it said it was unlikely but didn't rule it out.
Labour:Could work with Greens, and New Zealand First in a Government. It is open to a confidence and supply agreement with the Maori Party and Internet-Mana but has ruled them out as ministers. Has ruled out working with National, Act and the Conservatives and does not contemplate working with United Future.
Internet-Mana: Could support Labour but not National.
NZ First: Could support National or Labour but would decide after the election and would talk in the first instance to the highest-polling party. Vetoed the Greens in Government in 2005 but this year has only ruled out working with the Maori Party.
Maori Party: Could support National or Labour but would decide after the election.
