No, sadly she does not even have that much leverage.
She is an ex-TV newsreader who had disappeared into anonymity for years until at the height of the decade she popped up and started doing this sort of thing. She then formed a political party which only got 1.5% in the recent election (we have the most fucked up PR system you can imagine with a 5% threshold to get into Parliament (if the votes don't reach 5% they get shared out among all the UniParty parties - which is a massive disincentive to not vote for parties like NZ Loyal).
She is heavily gaslighted in NZ (to be fair she is a bit weird), but she was one of the few in NZ who gave me hope during the worst excess of the Covid tyranny - so I love her to bits.
You think you have a UniParty swamp in the USA - it's nothing like how bad it is in NZ's dictatorship. You can vote for any party you want, but you always get more or less the same policies. High taxation, low quality of public services, surveillance everywhere, no constitutional protections - we are a slave society - albeit one with nice scenery.
