"Te Pāti Māori says police trespassed a man who unlawfully entered the home of its fourth-ranked candidate Hana-Rāwhiti Maipi-Clarke on Wednesday morning.
It comes less than a week after her home was invaded and vandalised, with a threatening letter left behind.
Party president John Tamihere said the person involved in the latest incident was "an elderly Pākehā man" who was a well-known advocate and campaigner for the National Party, and the incident was politically motivated.
"Huntly's a small town, and what he wasn't aware of is that whānau were in residence when Hana on her schedule on her facebook page was out campaigning. When he entered the house and was confronted he advised 'oh I thought Hana was out on the campaign trail'," he told Morning Report."
