How the main answer changed
The overseas-voter answer omitted the Greens and Te Pāti Māori and concentrated on employment and investment. The earlier housing discussion became an offer to explain more later.
It still supplied no replacement explanation of overseas voting rules. Leaving out an earlier statement does not correct it.
The extracts compare the main Gemini answer on 23 and 26 October. Each opens the original answer from its own date. Other assistants' complete answers are available above.
