Things I would have done if running the yes campaign, knowing one needs to lessen opposition from right leaning voters.

1) Hire Jo de Joux and/or Matthew Hooton and/or Megan Campbell (people who know the right)
2) Focus strongly on fiscal side - less money for gangs, more money for Vote Health
3) Also focus on stronger controls - proof of age needed
4) Do outreach to potential allies like NZ Initiative, Taxpayers Union
5) Give a couple of centrist former Nat Ministers on board
6) Be more aggressive and attack the yes campaign on the status quo
7) Have an cross-party advisory group (like euthanasia had). Yes I know Nat MPs might not play ball, but get non MPs involved.
That should of course be attack the no campaign on the status quo
