New Zealanders voted on Saturday, the final day of a closely contested general election. Preliminary results after polls closed put the ruling National Party near 31% and Labour near 30%, leaving the race too close to call. The cost of living and economic problems were key issues; final results are due November 27.
Polls suggest no coalition is likely to win a majority, setting up one of New Zealand’s closest elections in recent history. Several electorates are close contests between National and Labour, while the Greens are also competing for urban seats including Christchurch Central.
Early results show New Zealand’s centre-right National Party with 31.19 percent of the vote, ahead of the centre-left Labour Party on 28.35 percent. The Electoral Commission said the centrist Opportunity Party would clear the 5 percent threshold for parliament.
Voting is taking place in New Zealand's general election, with people arriving at a polling place in Auckland on election day.
Polling stations opened for the final day of New Zealand’s election, amid concerns about rising living costs and the economy. More than 1.6 million of nearly 3.8 million voters had cast ballots by Thursday. Polls put the governing National Party and opposition Labour Party neck and neck, with neither projected to govern alone.

Paraguayan authorities moved former President Santiago Pena to a military base for his protection, bringing a dramatic day in Asuncion to a close. Earlier, he had been placed under house arrest after UENO bank collapsed.
Santiago Peña was removed from office and arrested after a banking crisis left millions of people unable to access their money.
Paraguay’s Congress impeached President Santiago Peña, who was ordered under house arrest minutes later. The suspension of Ueno Bank over irregularities blocked about 2.9 million customers—roughly 60% of the country’s adult population—from accessing their money, prompting protests. Peña is under investigation over allegations he used political influence to favour the bank; Vice-President Pedro Alliana was sworn in as the new leader.
Pedro Alliana has taken office as Paraguay’s president after lawmakers impeached Santiago Pena amid a scandal surrounding the collapse of Ueno Bank. Prosecutors sought Pena’s arrest on suspicion of breaching public trust and other crimes; he was reportedly detained at home. The bank’s failure left millions unable to access accounts and pension payments.
Former Paraguayan president Santiago Peña was placed under house arrest Friday on suspicion of breach of trust. The move came shortly after the Senate removed him from office over the collapse of a major bank linked to his government.

Ueno Bank’s sudden collapse has plunged Paraguay into a serious crisis involving suspected financial fraud, public funds at risk and millions of customers. President Santiago Pena faces impeachment; the Chamber of Deputies voted unanimously to impeach him, and the Senate has opened proceedings.
The collapse of Ueno, a rapidly growing digital lender, has left millions unable to access their savings and raised questions about state influence and accountability. Paraguay is in political turmoil, with Congress rejecting President Santiago Pena’s resignation and pursuing impeachment. Pena is accused of negligence and complicity in an alleged cover-up of the bank’s insolvency.

The lower house approved charges 78–0. The bank’s failure left more than half the population unable to access their accounts, and Pena requested 72 more hours to prepare his defence.
