New Zealand's Labour Party Candidate is in the Lead! - Jacinda Ardern for Prime Minister

Jacinda Arden is 37 y/o, in politics x9 years. She came from behind with 23% now at 53% in current polls against the National Party (conservative) Bill English.
She is running a good campaign stressing optimism. Bill English of the National Party has been Prime Minister for 9 years (3-year cycles).

Election day is Sept. 23, 2017. (Yes, on a Saturday. How reasonable of them to pick a favorable day for people to vote.)




I like her. Go Jacinda Ardern!
