Politicians, elections in NZ

It is my natural curiosity, my inquisitiveness, that led me to discover this site called the Department of Personal Opinions and it is quite an interesting one, most especially now that we're having our general elections in a couple of months time. I've done a cursory look and it is a good site to start with in understanding NZ politics.  I guess just like any politician in any country, they are always busy, well some of them are while others appear to be, and others seem to be.  I've emailed a number of them in Parliament with some, well a handful really, graciously answering my email within 24 hours (which is good email etiquette really).  A few were answered by their staff, and the rest totally ignored.  It's not easy to get their attention, even during election time, specially when you're not within their media radar.  I'll keep on knocking at their door, until someone, anyone, gets to open it.
