Questionable Election Result in New Zealand
Kelvyn: "Do you believe that the party vote for the South Island went red?"
Heather: "We have been asking at a lot of our meetings to the farmers... Do you guys agree that a lot of the farmers voted red?"
"We get told to bleep off, we would not vote for them."
"There was one candidate who stood for a party who was told by people who he knew personally that they'd voted for him. That was close to 500 people who said that to him. In the official count he got 152 votes."
"Political statisticians have said it's actually statistically impossible."
Call to Action
Kelvyn: "The ballots are due to be destroyed shortly... All you gotta get is enough affidavits to say you voted for this particular person."
"If it does not match what they gave on election night. You are set to do an injunction. That should be enough to stop the destruction of those ballots."
