How the assistants handled this voter's main question
Party field narrows; tenancy comparison returns; immediate-assistance detail drops
Edition 3 returns to the direct tenant-protection versus supply comparison prominent in Edition 1. It adds specific Labour housing numbers and retirement-village discussion, but no longer names NZ First or Opportunity, both individually profiled in earlier answers. Edition 2’s practical Accommodation Supplement/TAS advice is also absent; a private renter receives a different mix of options and immediate help.
The excerpts compare answers to this voter’s main question on 12 October 2026 and 16 October 2026. The figures above include all produced answers for this situation. Each extract opens its dated original answer.
