\\nAt two this afternoon to results of around 570-thousand votes will be released by the Electoral Commission.
\\nThe results will likely dictate whether National and ACT need New Zealand First to run the country.
\\nFormer Finance Minister, Steven Joyce, told Mike Hosking that how fast National can form a Government will be determined on their future coalition partners.
\\nHe says they\'ve been talking about getting it sorted sometime next week, but he wouldn\'t bet the house on it.
