How the assistants handled this voter's main question
Drops Opportunity and removes a precise Labour rent-cap attribution
The refreshed Queenstown answer drops Opportunity and replaces the earlier precise attribution of a 2% cap to Labour with a broad left-party grouping. This is an omission of that exact claim, not a verified correction. It retains the direct-protection-versus-future-supply trade-off, but neither answer establishes whether this particular rented room falls under residential tenancy protections or a different flatmate/boarding arrangement. Local worker-housing delivery remains unspecified.
The excerpts compare answers to this voter’s main question on 16 October 2026 and 19 October 2026. The figures above include all produced answers for this situation. Each extract opens its dated original answer.
- 16 October 2026 · Earlier answerGemini“The Plan: Labour’s housing platform includes funding at least 6,000 more social housing places over a four-year period (backed by $2.9 billion for Kāinga Ora to build state houses) and introducing a policy to limit annual rent increases to 2 percent.”Open in the answer
- 19 October 2026 · Refreshed answerGemini“Parties on the left also champion stronger renter protections, such as limiting annual rent increases, restricting no-cause tenancy terminations, and introducing rental standards.”Open in the answer
