I do hope everyone in Epsom votes this man into power - especially people giving their party vote to NZ First, Greens, Maori Party the Pirate Party or Labour. The last three years of the NZ political circus have been bad enough, but I think things will be pretty dire if the existing powers have nothing to moderate their behaviour for another three years.
Only MMP is giving me any hope at this, and it's great that it lets me vote for Hekia Parata while I give my party vote elsewhere.
