NZ First is cashing in big time with major donations — $100K from tech mogul Brian Cartmell (who also gave ACT the same) and $30K from seafood firm Cando Fishing, a huge leap from their usual under-$20K contributions. Labour’s also seeing a surge, with five new donors — including Coromandel No. Five Limited and tech figure Martin Buhr — now hitting over $20K each, totaling more than $111K. Coalition parties currently control 73% of all declared donations, showing donor loyalty to established players. Meanwhile, some backers are concentrating funds on one party, while others spread support across multiple groups — making this election’s funding landscape both intense and unpredictable, all tracked by the Electoral Commission for transparency.
