The Botany Five
national has annoucned the five short-listed candidates for Botany. In alphabetical order they are:
- Maggie Barry
- aaron bhatnagar
- Darron Gedge
- jami-lee ross
- edward saafi
I picked four of the five correctly. I thought denise krum would make it also. Edward Saafi I had not profiled previously – his local body election profile is here. Dr Saafi has a PhD and MBA, working as a biomedical health research scientist. Seems a very solid candidate. However he appears to have stood for the destiny Party in 2005 in Mangere, so I think fair to say not my first choice.
Selection is on Thursday 27 January.
