Election candidates face a close quizzing
(WorldNews New Zealand)

OPINION: What do you get when you cross an election campaign meeting with a quiz show? Something similar to what occurred at the five-candidate discussion hosted by the Manawatu Standard in Palmerston North on Wednesday, it appears. The debate gave the five candidates for Palmerston North - Iain Lees-Galloway, Labour; Darroch Ball, NZ First; Adrienne Pierce, National; Thomas Nash, Green Party; and Scott Andrew, Money Free Party - a comfortable forum to showcase themselves and their party`s policies.
