| Description | Prime Minister Jacinda Ardern has announced a general election date during a post-Cabinet press conference.
The 2020 general election will be held on 19 September.
As well as electing a new government, voters will be asked to decide on voluntary euthanasia and the legalisation of cannabis through two referenda.
She said for politicians, a three-year term meant "we are always in campaign mode anyway".
"This year we intend to govern right up until the election is held which I can advise will be on 19 September."
She said Labour was asking for a further term to "keep getting the job done". |
