The registered owner of a website muddling links to Auckland mayoral candidates appears to be a Young Nat.
The domain name mystery emerged this month when anyone loading efesocollins.co.nz or craiglord.co.nz found themselves redirected to the website of rival candidate Leo Molloy.
The Domain Name Commission previously listed the contact for Collins' site as a 'Leo Molloy'.
It now lists a 'Tristram Speedy' of Auckland as the contact - a person who, according to LinkedIn, is secretary and deputy chair of the northern Young Nats.
Speedy has declined to comment.
Molloy, the mayoral candidate, last week denied any knowledge of who was behind the redirections, telling RNZ's Checkpoint: "I don't get involved in this stuff ... I'm a pretty straight shooter."
The contact for the craiglord.co.nz domain name is unchanged since the diversion issue was discovered earlier this month and is listed as a 'Craig who'.
