@Steve: I don’t think the majority of swing voters who would be moved on the issue of drug reform would be inclined to go to anybody other than the ACT party in this case. However, if Act were true to their principles, they couldn’t oppose drug reform (although I suppose there’s the dangerous assumption that those swing voters wouldn’t go to Labour which I’m not sure would be the case). I assume that’s why it seems they tend to obfuscate about their view when asked (from recollection). Of course, they are more a conservative party these days anyway, I think, but it probably serves them better to neither admit that nor deny it.
