ACT's David Seymour says the final election results haven't changed his relationship with Winston Peters- but it's their job to make it work now voters have decided.

National and Act now need New Zealand First to form a Government after National lost two seats in the special vote counts.

Seymour says he'd reached out to New Zealand First before that, but they haven't heard back.

"I think now they're clearly made part of a future governing arrangement by Friday's numbers, it's incumbent on them to show up and talk- and I'm sure they will."
