I’m in Aussie, is there updates during the day/night?
Does anyone know of any coverage over here or on YouTube?

Things should start picking around 7 pm NZST.

Yeah, Media aren't allowed to report on anything (neither is anyone else) until 7pm.

It's an election law.

With the Voice referendum taking place, Sky News, who normally cover NZ elections, are covering the Voice instead. Try live streaming OneNews or NewsHubs/Tv 3 coverage. If those don‘t work, try NewsTalk NZ on iHeart Radio.

I wonder how legal this is….. I just had a woman phone one saying she was from one of the parties and ask had I voted yet.

That is fine. They just can't tell you who to vote for.

Wasted vote is a myth, only wasted if you don't end up voting for what you want?

Or, if that the party doesn't get in then dissolves before the next election á la Advance NZ.
What a dumpster fire that was

You mean my vote for the Bill and Ben party meant nothing? For shame!!!

 

[hornbybrown]

If the people that said that very thing actually voted that way, they'd definitely get in

That’s the problem though, I know other people are doing the same as me. If I knew everyone thinking like me would actually vote TOP then I would do it. Wasted vote definitely isn’t a myth. It’s very real.

It’s a failing in our version of MMP. The five percent threshold isn’t really a democratic way of doing it. To be truly democratic each party would get seats that represent the votes they got.

 

[Tragic]

Did my voting, going to get off the māori role, te Tai tokerau has no competition, Kelvin or legalize cannabis party basically. I hope the party I voted for comes out on Top.

Yeah, I mean its a thing, more a self fulfilling prophecy than a myth I guess

Well good luck to everyone agreeing with the party they didn't vote for and complaining about the party they didn't agree with but did vote for *slow clap*

Pretty clear trends all ready, enough we could probably call it.

The Top candidate in Illam is not even half the votes of the National Candidate so no chance.

The Greens looking like they will win Wellington Central. Auckland central on a knives edge.

Wizard of bloody Tauranga should be happy!

Hopefully it shuts up the hysterical whinging for the offseason at least.

 

[Mr Drag]

This is a death for Labour! We on the left told them to shove all this woke into the garbage!

Ya dreaming Jonesy

It's a great night !

 

[Mr Drag]

It's a great night !

Maybe National will be tougher on crime! Even the left wanted Labour to do something but they didn't!

 

[John Nick]

Do you think that the gangs will be shaking in their boots

 

[Inruin]

There is a reason why the gangs support Labour.
