| 706435 | 2008-09-20 04:43:00 | Have you seen the signs extolling your vote for the Labour Party? Particularly those with a likeness of Mzzzzzz Helen Clark? She either employs a very good makeup artist or the photo touchups are very well done as she looks almost human, which is a marked change from her many television interviews. Obviously, what you see if not necessarily what you get. False advertising? have you ever noticed that KFC never looks like the photos in the ads..... |

| 706437 | 2008-09-20 07:00:00 | Have you seen the signs extolling your vote for the Labour Party? Hmm.....'extol':....."to praise enthusiastically". :confused: Perhaps you mean soliciting [your vote], or encouraging [you to vote for], or exhorting [you to vote for]. If you wanna stir up election fever and get folk riled up agin' the PM, you gotta make sense. Otherwise your message could get lost and we might just laugh at you instead. Cheers Billy 8-{) :D |

Cheers Billy 8-{) :D You're right, as usual, Mr Billy, Sir. Always good to have someone awake. Quite correct, "soliciting" is really what I meant.:o Seems as though you are laughing anyway. Sorry about that, chief.:o |

| 706441 | 2008-09-20 11:50:00 | Do you guys realise we're sailing fairly close to the wind here in the promoting (or otherwise) of any electorate candidates and publishing our statements in this medium? What about the concept of open democracy and free speech hmmmm? (Though, in looking up the relevant legislation, I think we're ok) www.elections.org.nz Non-candidates or non-political parties (“third parties”) wanting to influence voters * Campaigning on political issues is not covered by new requirements unless it is encouraging or persuading voters to vote for or against any of a candidate(s), party(ies), or type of candidate or party. * The news media, including individuals’ own participation in political discussion through the news media and non-commercial blogs, are not covered by these requirements. * Any person or group wanting to encourage or persuade voters (as above) must put their name and address to any election advertisement. * Any person or group wanting to spend more than $12,000 influencing voters in this way must list with the Electoral Commission as a Third Party, may not spend more than $120,000 from 1 January 2008 on election activity, must appoint a financial agent (who authorises its election advertising), and are subject to financial accountability arrangements covering campaign expenses and donations. Lower limits apply if a third party campaign only relates to an electorate candidate. |
