National urges voters to put both ticks blue; ACT and NZ First back one-tick vote-splitting

National rejects a candidate-only vote-splitting strategy and is urging voters to put both ticks blue, meaning both their electorate and party votes go to National. ACT and NZ First have endorsed a one-tick version of the strategy. Splitting your vote means voting for a candidate from a different party than the one you give your party vote to.
