Dear [Name],

The election date has just been announced for November 7, giving us just 290 days until New Zealand reaches a decision point.

They can rehire Labour and the Greens. They can back the status quo. Or, they can use their vote to make this Government better with a stronger ACT voice.

I’m writing to you today for one clear reason: to ask you to support ACT’s 2026 election campaign so we can make the case for aiming higher – and convince New Zealanders to take the opportunity to improve their country by giving the current Government real backbone, stronger values, and better ideas.

In Government, ACT has shown that with clear ideas and the courage to act, Government can change direction.

This election is about whether that momentum continues.

I’ve said it many times: the Government hasn’t gone as far as ACT would like – but it has gone much further than it would have without ACT. Any Government without ACT would see New Zealand drift left, with many of the ideas we’ve worked hard to stamp out returning by default.

New Zealand faces serious challenges ahead. History shows that countries which take their prosperity for granted often lose it. Only a stronger ACT Team in Parliament can ensure that doesn’t happen here.

And on the biggest issues – the Zero Carbon Act, costly earthquake regulations, co-governance, balancing the books, and the Treaty Principles debate – only ACT has stood on principle time and time again. Other parties have bowed to what they thought was popular, at significant cost both financially and to social cohesion.

At the last election, 246,473 New Zealanders voted ACT. Our research shows many more are open to our message – but only if they hear it clearly. Making that case takes resources, especially when we’re not willing to rely on legacy media to tell our story for us.

That’s why I’m asking you to chip in today.

[Name], your donation will fund:


  • Online ads reaching tens of thousands of voters each week

  • Printing and delivery of ACT campaign material

  • Fuel, travel, and logistics to keep the campaign moving across New Zealand

With 290 days to go, this really is time to choose.

If you want New Zealand to keep aiming higher, I hope you’ll support ACT’s campaign today.

DONATE NOW

For now, ACT's work in government continues. Delivering on commitments we made in 2023 remains our first priority. But as the year goes on, we'll be hitting the road, inviting honest debate and asking New Zealanders for the mandate to go further.

Thank you,


David Seymour
ACT Party Leader
Deputy Prime Minister
