Richard Prebble’s decision not to stand for Wellington
Central shows that ACT will run a new style of campaign
focusing exclusively on the list vote, according to the
Wellington President of ACTivists, Lucas Nagorcka.
“While
it’s always fun to campaign alongside the ACT leader, we
know that Richard will be effective in every electorate, and
don’t mind sharing him with our other branches” Mr Nagorcka

freedom of choice and personal responsibility.”
Mr
Nagorcka said that ACTivists would run a vigorous
alternative campaign to win ACT party votes from young New
Zealanders.
