The only huge winner was apathy! Labour only managed to get about a
third of the voters out. Sure it was a by-election but when you consider
how Labour is touting it as a landslide because Ardern beat the Greens
by 8000 odd votes. The electorate has something like 36000 registered
voters yet only about one third could be bothered and Angry Little Andy
thinks Labours ready for the main event in September? Dumb buggers been
hitting the cooking sherry again.

to site in for the next 20 years or so..

You are responding to a troll, Mutley. Of course it was a huge win -
it was won before voting go underway when National found themselves so intimidated by the prospect of a second by-election loss that they
decided it was better not to stand. Disgusted National supporters just
stayed away, despite suggestions that National may have encouraged
them to vote for the Green candidate to get Adern's percentage of the
vote down. Labour and the Greens were able to show how ready they are
to govern with excellent organisation and mutual respect and
cooperation - a far cry from National's attitudes to even its own
support parties.

National used to be a party that prided itself on standing for every
electorate - they have long since given up on the Maori seats, and the
deals with ACT and Peter Dunne show a disrespect for their supporters
in those electorates.

Your comments are just silly - if you were serious you would have
given some evidence supporting them.

Of course there was no opposition - National gave up at the start -
remember? They recognised that another defeat would not have looked
good, but of course they now can be seen as not wanting to represent
all New Zealanders . . .

Labour and the Green parties get on very well together - they have
different views, but are capable of respecting each others opinions
for the greater good, but both parties put candidates forward for hte
election - no jack up there as National has done with the Maori party,
ACT and United Future - or as Mana has now done with the Maori party.

Even in Ohariu, the Green party made an independent decision not to
stand - no jack up there.

Feel free to provide evidence if you think I am not correct with any
of them.

Scaring off your major opponent before the election was indeed a huge
win.

Mutley don't respond to the troll. He's only capable of repeating the
vague ramblings of his Baldric like leader. Not enough sense to think
for himself. So typical of the marxist muppets dancing around patting themselves on the back for managing to get less than a third of the
electorate out to confirm Adhern as a challenge to Angry Andy.

BULLSHIT! Mt Albert has been a safe Labour seat for a very long time.
National chose to leave it to the left to squabble over.

Disgusted National supporters just

stayed away, despite suggestions that National may have encouraged
them to vote for the Green candidate to get Adern's percentage of the
vote down.

National supporters stayed away because the by-election was of no
consequence and was only any good for putting a new face in the seat and legitimising a piece of fluff.

Labour and the Greens were able to show how ready they are

to govern with excellent organisation and mutual respect and
cooperation - a far cry from National's attitudes to even its own
support parties.

Excellent organisation? The fuckwits couldn't even get one third of the electorate off their idle butts!

National used to be a party that prided itself on standing for every electorate - they have long since given up on the Maori seats, and the
deals with ACT and Peter Dunne show a disrespect for their supporters
in those electorates.

National still has people in every electorate when it matters Rich.

Your comments are just silly - if you were serious you would have
given some evidence supporting them.

Good grief Rich, the silly nay stupid comments are all yours!

Now instead of cowering under your bridge and making dumb posts like
this come out and DEBATE don't just keep repeating Labours Baldric like
cunning plans.....

Labour and the Greens are an alliance of desperation Rich and the cracks
have been appearing since the marriage. Only blind fools like you can't
see them. I notice you're conveniently forgetting the Labour/Green DEAL
on Dunne's seat.

Even in Ohariu, the Green party made an independent decision not to
stand - no jack up there.

BULLSHIT!

You've had the evidence rammed down your slimy throat so often you have
to be totally brainless not to understand your just lying desperatly to
give you a vain hope Labour/Green can pull the election off after nine
years of total ineptitude!

Scaring off your major opponent before the election was indeed a huge

As I understand it, the Mt Albert electorate was formed for the 1946
election and has always been won by Labour. One of the National
candidates was Robert David Muldoon.

So National not standing a candidate in this electorate for a
by-election hardly rates as evidence of intimidation.

Disgusted National supporters just
stayed away, despite suggestions that National may have encouraged
them to vote for the Green candidate to get Adern's percentage of the
vote down. Labour and the Greens were able to show how ready they are

support parties.

Based on the 2014 election National got 10,314 electorate votes. In
the by-election the number of voters who did not vote vastly exceeds
that number. Your comment is so far from what actually happened as to
be comical.

National used to be a party that prided itself on standing for every >electorate - they have long since given up on the Maori seats, and the
deals with ACT and Peter Dunne show a disrespect for their supporters
in those electorates.

That would have been true in the FPP era - but not MMP with a party
vote in general elections.

Your comments are just silly - if you were serious you would have
given some evidence supporting them.
