"Defeated" and "disheartened" is how a young voter is feeling after she says the two Chrises "danced around" her question in the first leaders' debate.
Sky Rens is a waitress on Auckland's Northshore earning a living wage of $26/hr. In TVNZ's leaders' debate, the 23-year-old asked both Chrises whether rich people had any responsibility for poverty - and their answers left her sad.
Check out her interview with Checkpoint this evening.
Rens told Checkpoint: "They definitely danced around my question. I was fully expecting them to say 'we should all have a responsibility' which I think Hipkins did and he was implying that we have our responsibility to pay our taxes.
"In a perfect world, I would want a promise of a capital gains tax, but I think they're not wanting to risk losing the vote of New Zealand's richer citizens."
It was "sad" that neither leader could give her an answer, she said.
