They've done well, but I think they would really want to be in the 13-15% range. Still, looks like they'll pick up 2-3 electorates, which would be huge.

I think co governance and Marama's outburst really hurt them. Justifiably so.

Maybe, but I doubt that made much difference to people who were realistically actually going to vote for them. This will likely be their best result ever.

It's amazing actually, the number of comments I've seen online from supposed green party supporters saying they don't like them having a race quota, don't support other aspects of their policies etc, but will still vote for them, is incredible.

Having said that, they do have some solid policies.
