You wish, FP. Quite a few voters changing their minds at the moment, or making decisions.
Interesting comic strip here.

Jacinda has done well in coming out strongly and forcing Metiria to "come to her own decision" to withdraw from Senior Ministerial responsibility (she should go further and withdraw from Leadership and the list) should they form a Government and also by shutting down the possibility of Winston becoming PM. Now it will be interesting to see if she comes up with some decent policy for voters. Her smile will not do the trick alone.
Glad you brought those names up to date, FP. Carter hasn't been around for a while. Do Parker and Twyford put too much thought into their work, is that the problem?
I note that John Key was also guilty of enrolling in an electorate (Helensville) for three years that he didn't reside in, he used a house that he owned there.

Rousing reception for Jacinda in Auckland today. More good Labour policy rolled out.

Labour's still in the news this morning, with plenty of positive feedback about their accelerated Auckland light rail plans.

Funding it partly through a local fuel levy makes plenty of sense, judging from the number of cars up there, it won't need much per litre.
From Here to Ardernity
Sounds good
Wouldn't it be Ardernity?
Interesting note - the duration of the reign of recent Labour leaders seems to be indirectly proportional to their quality. The better they are the earlier Labour tends to backstab them. Shearer is an outstanding example to prove this point.
So, I guess we can't have both - a Labour Leader who is good and who at the same time sticks around for a long time. We will find out into which category Jacinda falls.
Discl: haven't yet made up my mind on Jacinda yet, but she certainly is a fresh face. The question is - will she be able to control the backwards looking unions and the ultra left ideologists in her party? Her only chance to govern would be if she is embracing the political centre. Not holding my breath ...
