[edit] Revert of User:222.153.31.90's edits

I have again reverted this users POV edits. It is disruptive to continually add a meaningless stat, i.e., that Laws candidates won a by-election with " 26% of the vote". This is totally irrelevant when there were several candidates, and needs to be seen in context, which is that Hogan got 57 per cent more votes than the runner up in her ward, and Taylor got 70 per cent more votes than the runner up in his ward. It is irrelevant too that NZ First got 13 per cent of parliamentary seats in 1996. I have also removed the speculative POV allegation that something was "possibly due to Laws and others manipulation of internal voting processes", which has absolutely no relevance to the context of the sentence. A claim attributed to Laws, not cited or referenced, has also been excised. User:222.153.31.90 has only five edits in total and may not know about talk pages, but I will leave a message on his talk page to read this page. Moriori 21:24, 17 July 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Who

First off, they were antagonists, not protagonists which these days means supporters. Whatever, who were the two people who unsuccessfully sued Laws? Shouldn't we name them? Moriori 03:04, 18 November 2006 (UTC)
