New Zealand Loyal candidates for electorates around NZ. Election day October 14, 2023.

New Zealand Loyal burst onto the political stage only in early July 2023. They are now a Registered Party and are contesting in electorates right across New Zealand. Graphics below show precisely which electorates, and who NZ Loyal candidates are running against. I would personally love to see an NZL candidate standing in Wellington Central. There is a lazy little man in this electorate who can't even be bothered to hit the campaign trail. He is so self-assured of his re-election that he is depending on his high place on the list to get him through. However, what happens if the NZ Labour Party does abysmally on the day? Could a NZ Loyal candidate win the seat for Wellington Central and NZ Loyal Party Votes be so voluminous throughout NZ that Mr Roberts is nudged off his well-paid perch and back into the private sector ?? !!   Interesting idea.
