【澳纽网编译】权力角逐 – 那么在备受期待的2023竞选首场辩论后，我们懂得了什么？
一件事 – 工党的克里斯·希普金斯（Chris Hipkins）和国家党的卢克森（Luxon）在很多方面都相似：他们都在20多岁时买了第一套房，他们对抗气候变化的贡献是一辆家庭电动汽车和回收，最近他们都频繁去教堂 – 主要是在竞选期间。在被问及他们欣赏对方领导风格的方面时，他们都表示欣赏对家庭的承诺。
他们都对自己在电视新西兰（TVNZ）领导人辩论中的表现给予了相当慷慨的评价，都给自己打了八分，但辩论没有展示出新的政策或更深层次的个人见解。
辩论大致是尊重的，尽管礼貌是好的，但在急需一些活力的竞选活动中，这使得辩论显得精力不足。

两人在摄像机外有一种友好的化学反应 – 他们在辩论前和广告中间聊天。在第一次广告中，希普金斯走到观众中的记者那里打招呼。当被问及他认为情况如何时，他给出了一句不太热情的回答：“哦，还行。”
希普金斯在辩论前谈到了大量尚未决定的选民，称这是一个吸引他们注意的机会；但除了承诺在中学禁止碳酸饮料之外，没有什么能够吸引潜在选民的东西，这些东西每天都在竞选活动中推出。
在民意调查中落后，希普金斯本可以试图对那个想要夺走他职位的人造成严重甚至致命的打击 – 但这种情况并没有发生。
他几乎没有什么可以失去的，可以积极参与 – 让卢克森感到不适，给他施加压力。有一些干扰，但没有什么能让卢克森迷失方向的。希普金斯确实在健康不平等方面挑战了卢克森，因为国民党提议取消毛利健康局，但这种能量在辩论的大部分时间里都没有体现出来。
在与记者进行辩论后采访时，他准备好了一个一句话的玩笑：“已经过去了二十天和一场辩论，我们仍然不知道国民党将如何为他们的税收计划支付费用。”
希普金斯表示，他将回去观看辩论，作为下一场辩论的准备的一部分，无法抵制一次更多的嘲笑：“你们问他问题多少次，克里斯托弗·卢克森（Christopher Luxon）将继续拒绝回答。现在我对你们比以前更有同情心”。

卢克森在辩论后被问及他是否认为辩论会改变任何人的看法，或是否会改变任何政党的命运。
他希望“这是一个良好的平台”，让人们能够听到他们两人发言并提出各自关于如何推动国家前进的“想法……希望新西兰人能从中获益，更好地了解我们作为领导人的身份。”
两人都没有丢脸，但也没有特别激励人心。在辩论前几天，他们都声称自己是弱势群体，但事后没有人能够声称自己是明显的胜利者。
