Voices for Freedom have been pushing hard for weeks to get their members to run for local council and have now released their strategy. They want to have a candidate sit in every seat and are working with other groups (TFRC and more) to make sure that happens. #nzpol

But VFF’s focus is on running for seats with little to no competition. In a recent video, they took viewers through nominee pages, pointing out where there are spaces to run uncontested. #nzpol electionz.com/lge2022_resour…

There is a shortage of candidates in local body elections. This is a clear path to power for VFF and other conspiracist candidates who wish to excerpt their power over the opinions of the majority of New Zealanders #nzpol

VFF are organised, pushing candidate information packs, and bringing together teams to support local body candidates. And you’ll notice, their main goal is to prevent the influence of UN agenda locally, which is 100% a conspiracy theory. #nzpol
