ACT New Zealand Mt Albert candidate John Boscawen today confirmed that he has been invited to the Eden-Albert Community Board meeting on Auckland Governance – and is not surprised to learn that National Party candidate Melissa Lee has not.
“There can be only one of two possibilities as to why Ms Lee did not receive the invitation,” Mr Boscawen said.
“Either the National Party hierarchy and her campaign team consider her to be such an embarrassment and liability that they did not pass the invitation on, or the Mt Albert community does not rate her as a viable candidate for the seat.
“I am pleased to have been invited and this further confirms that this election is a two horse race between myself and my Labour opponent,” Mr Boscawen said.
