Dear
Friend,
It’s now
official.
The Prime
Minister has just confirmed the 2026 General Election will be
held on Saturday, 7 November.
The
announcement means the fight for New Zealand’s future starts
today.
The polls show the same thing: this election will
be decided on a knife-edge. A handful of seats. A small shift
in public opinion. A few months where the narrative is either
challenged – or allowed to harden.
And right
now, the danger is clear.

There has
not been a single mainstream poll in the last two years showing Chris
Hipkins returning to power without being completely dependent
on the Greens and Te Pāti Māori.
That
would be the most radical government in our lifetime. It would be a
government forced to trade policy, spending, and democratic
principles for coalition survival.
You’ve
already seen what that looks like.
If you thought Nanaia Mahuta's Three Waters
'co-governance' was bad, imagine what Chris Hipkins will need to cook
up to keep Te Pāti Māori happy!
Higher
taxes. Radical co-governance entrenched. Economic growth
sacrificed.
Make no
mistake, this is the real risk New Zealand faces in
November.
That’s
why I’m asking you today to fund the fight that must happen
before the formal campaign begins.
Your
donation to the Election Year Taxpayers’ Fighting
Fund allows the Taxpayers’ Union to act now — when it matters
most — by:
-
Challenging bad ideas before they become
accepted truth
-
Forcing
the debate the media too often avoids
-
Putting
real economic and democratic consequences in front of voters
early
-
Making
sure New Zealanders understand what's at stake
If we wait until the official campaign period, it
will be too late. By then, positions are locked in, excuses are made,
and dangerous ideas are already normalised.
This
entire year must be treated as a full time campaign — and that can
only happen if supporters like you and me step up with our
support.
What
happens between today and 7 November will shape New Zealand for
decades. Whether we rebuild a strong, first-world economy. Whether we
remain a first-world democracy where citizens are treated equally — or
slide further down a path that divides, weakens, and undercuts our
kids' prosperity.
Friend,
can I count on you to help fund the campaigns needed to educate
voters, challenge the radical agenda, and stop a Labour-Green-Te Pāti
Māori coalition before it’s too late?
