Description: Shows two open hands, one holding a '1984 election' box. In the other hand are Prime Minister Rob Muldoon, Labour leader Bill Rowling, and the leader of Social Credit Bruce Beetham.

Description: In six cameos a voter in the East Coast Bays by-election explores his options by visiting the National Party, the Labour Party and Social Credit. Prime Minister Rob Muldoon (National Party) is being strangled by a snake representing the 'economy', Leader of the Labour Party Bill Rowling is involved in a fight and Social Credit leader Bruce Beetham engulfs the voter in a flood of words. The overwhelmed voter decides to vote for Social Credit whom he fails to understand but thinks must be better than the other two. Context: Although now a safe electorate for National, East Coast Bays was held for seven years by Social Credit MP Gary Knapp, from the 1980 by-election, where he defeated future National party leader Don Brash until the declining fortunes of the Democratic Party (as Social Credit renamed itself), led to Knapp being defeated in 1987 by Murray McCully, who has held the electorate since.
