I actually wasn't all that interested in the 2002 general election until Paul Henry let rip with some nasty racist & sexist put-downs of other candidates in Masterton. I hadn't bothered to vote in the 1999 general election, and it is quite possible I wouldn't have bothered to vote in the 2002 general election either. That is until Paul Henry suddenly created underdogs by being an arsehole. So I got off my arse and voted and gave my electorate vote to one of those candidates who were on the receiving end of Paul Henry's nasty putdowns.

In 2005, it was the Exclusive Brethren who galvanised me into giving a vote to the political party they were slagging off at, even though those religious hypocrites banned their own flock from voting or taking part in politics. If they hadn't been behaving like hypocrites, I probably wouldn't even have bothered, but when religious shithead cultists try to influence a general election in the way they did while banning their own church members from taking part in the election, then I'll vote for the underdog they have created with their bypocrisy.
