It literally takes less than a minute to copy, paste, and send. If enough people do this, the Electoral Commission will have no choice but to investigate.

Done, but paraphrased in my words. Thanks for the heads-up, as I'm not on any social media.

Thank you so much Aroha! I appreciate that you took the time to reword it. That's at least 15 complaints I have seen made so far, so hopefully we should see something in the mainstream media in the next few days. I will be contacting the electoral commission to ask the number of complaints.

Thanks for the heads up. Her election was a foregone conclusion surely. The whole of Te Pati must surely crash & burn. Orini's metal health does not look good and the rest of them are only just hanging in.......the whole party is quite a bizarre side-show in NZ politics

Honestly, it really reflects on the intelligence of Tamaki Makaurau voters. This is the same woman who struggled to answer basic questions in an interview, going off on unrelated Māori tangents instead. She even tried to find her phone just to get an answer. She doesn't look well, physically and mentally.

Doubt any of the voters watched the interview though…this is what we are dealing with

Is this the same political party that hasn't filled their required reports and just won a by election....?

Yep, so it probably wouldn't surprise you that Ferris did this.

Cheers! The more of us that report it, the more chance there is they’ll actually look into it.

Something must be wrong with the electoral system if that woman got elected.

Think something is drastically wrong with the voters. They must be brain dead.

About to do one each here, thanks for the heads up and providing the template :)

Votes up there in the Big Smoke must be totally braindead or something weird is going on... SMH

No worries Susan, and thanks for passing that on to them. Too often TPM and their members act like the rules don’t apply to them, usually getting little more than a slap on the wrist. It was good to see three TPM members actually suspended earlier this year – finally, some real consequences.
