WOW close result. I'm
WOW close result. I'm interested to know how a seat safely held by Akilisi is no longer considered safe but winnable for other candidates?
Has Taufatofua run an amazing campaign or has Pohiva taken the result for granted? Perhaps there are other contributory factors.
A follow up piece would be fantastic.
