		It will be the third election under the country’s “Mixed Member Proportional” representation system, and the third election in which I will have had the honor of voting.
		Perhaps it’s just that I’m not old enough to remember a similar case, but this election campaign feels very odd, because it’s one where the main opposition party — the National Party — has practically no chance of winning.
		So what interests me this election is the possibility of “soft” ACT supporters switching their votes to National in an attempt to save National from complete ignominy, leaving ACT sinking under the five percent threshold.
