Its absolutely hilarious.
There are dozens of quotes of Luxon telling voters not to be strategic, dont split the vote, party vote National.
On the other hand, his TPM mates genuinely did what hes accusing National of by telling their voters to strategically not vote for them...

Dai Henwood was just the best guy (fame didn’t change him) and so bloody funny.
Whether it was P-Funk Chainsaw, John D’Bank Teller from ‘New Plymitts!’, interpretive dancing to Time After Time, mock debates on 7 Days… Dai was crack up.
So generous, so positive.
RIP legend💔

National didn't manipulate the electoral system. National were adamant that they wanted all the party votes
VOTERS CHOSE to split their votes because they definitely didn't want SERIAL FAILURE DEBTKINS to be PM ever again
DEBTKINS NEVER TAKES RESPONSIBILITY FOR HIS FAILURES

Beyond doubt the party that most benefited from an overhang campaign in terms of party vote was the Greens. Probably gained them two more List MPs.

Socialism pays good , till you run out of other peoples money
RNZ salary bands
CEO = $558,000
Nine employees= Over$400,000 pa
Sixty employees = Over $200,000 pa
And they are going bust? That’s why, shut it down now google.com/search?q=how+much…
CA couldn't face suspending the whole team, & picked the obvious scapegoats. Warner (especially) & Smith should have been stood down for >12 months, if not for life.
And the Oz cricket media wouldn't rock the boat beyond that, for fear of losing access & pies in the media box
The anger directed towards Khawaja is misplaced. It should be directed towards CA and their wholly inadequate investigation. They didn't want to accept the consequences of a culture they fomented. If they did their job 8 years ago, the issue wouldn't be festering to this day.

When the left wins, the people have spoken. When the right wins, it was racism, prejudice, and the deliberate attempt to upset minorities. Democracy only works when it produces the correct leftist result.

New Zealand election results simplified for non-NZers.
The left tried to “cheat” the electoral system using a loophole, so the right decided to do the same.
The two tactics cancelled out, and now the left are complaining about how unfair it is that they didn’t get away with it.

What I don’t understand is when some of us from the right side of politics suggested National do the same as TPM the media came tumbling down on it as corrupt manipulative despicable and unethical.
How come it was okay for TPM to do but an absolute outrage for the right?

Michael Wood was fired from parliamenatary for being directly involved in decisions he benefited from due to shareholdings he held in related companies.
In other countries that is corruption.
Are Mt Roskil voters corrupt too?
The Mt Roskill result needs a full review now.

Turnout 74.6%. Second lowest ever, only 2011 was worse. A quarter of enrolled voters stayed home and two thirds of the rest voted early. Turns out a campaign about overhangs and land taxes does not get people off the couch.

What would Parliament look like if you de-coupled the list seats from the electorate ones
NAT: 42 + 15
LAB: 21 + 15
GRN: 2 + 7
ACT: 1 + 5
NZF: 0 + 4
TOP: 0 + 3
TPM: 5 + 0
Food for thought, perhaps?

An election take, informed by what I saw in-person:
- Had few people who weren't enrolled. Most claimed they didn't know of the change, only a handful were bulshy enough to want to vote regardless

139
- Labour needs to move on from Hipkins, Sepuloni, et al. But they're even shallower in terms of leadership options and whoever is next will need to keep a lid on Willie and the Maori caucus
