National leader Judith Collins has got in on the early voting action casting her ballot in Auckland’s Tamaki.
Collins, who stands in the Papakura electorate, lives in Tamaki, a seat comfortable held by National MP Simon O’Connor.
She arrived about 11 am to place her vote at St Thomas Tamaki, stopping in the chapel to offer a prayer before going in to vote.

I don’t know why the Media decided to publish this photo of Judith Collins praying before she voted. I suspect that they think her Christianity will be seen as a negative in contrast to the “progressive” Jacinda Ardern.

I think it will have the opposite effect as it may well bring some undecided voters home to National.

The New Face of an Old Hatred

The New Face of an Old Hatred

It is the raw, ignorant hatred that expelled Jews from medieval kingdoms, burned them in pogroms, restricted them from universities, and fed them into gas chambers. It requires no reason. It will simply endure unless, finally, good people stop it.
