Election is only 8ish weeks away, and the biggest opposition party purged their old leader for
a newer model today.

I know nothing of kiwi politics or what your parties stand for. IS she a reasonable person?

I've never heard of her either. Is she a moderate progressive, or a Trump like clown?

[1970s mode] I hear she's very big Down Under . . . [/1970s mode]
From a quick google she seems like a reasonable person but I'll defer to Tubes on that.

Jacinda is a classic whiskey drinkin' leftie and good on the podium.

You mean through the butt? Or just loose in the garden of eden?

In that case, were I inhabiting your crazy upside-down part of the world, I probably would put my X in her box.

Since the current PM has the surname "English" I don't see any other choice than the whisky drinkin' leftie.
Edit: Not my zoo and not my monkeys; but after a quick googling I'd probably vote Labour. In the US it would be Democrat (as the less worse option), in Germany I'd be somewhere on the SDP/Die GrĂ¼nen/Die Linke spectrum and in Singapore the Democratic Party simply because of the logo. Canada possibly the NDP but more likely the Liberals though I would need to spend more time checking. Germany and Canada might have a regional slant as well.

"but left the church in 2005 because it conflicted with her political views"
