"Rejuvenation is important for any political party, and National is going into this election with some fantastic new candidates,'' said party president Peter Goodfellow. "We are also farewelling some very dedicated MPs who have served their constituents, our party and the country with distinction. "Putting together a list is never easy, but this strikes the right balance between recognising experience, diversity and pursuing ongoing renewal.'' All of our candidates will be campaigning hard to ensure National gets a strong Party Vote result so we can keep delivering for New Zealanders.
