"If I lose, I don't think we could have done anything else, anything more."
Earlier today, he visited the campaign headquarters, but after finding there wasn't much he could do spent the rest of the day with family, and doing jobs around the house.
Since winning the seat in 2014, he has said he never stopped campaigning.
But when asked if he was looking forward to this campaign being over, he said "absolutely totally".
Meanwhile Green party candidate Damon Rusden was feeling positive about his party's return to parliament, but "couldn't place a bet on it either way" for the outcome of the Election.
"I'm quite certain the Greens will get above five per cent, same with New Zealand First, but anything past that I have no idea."
For himself, "the standard with [2014 Green candidate Paul Bailey] was 2000, 3000, so there'd be at least a core group of supporters with about 2000 double ticks which is cool."
However the resignations of Metiria Turei as co-leader, and of senior MP's Dave Clendon and Kennedy Graham could have changed the way voters felt - either pushing them away from the Greens, or getting more support.
"I have no idea, the Green party has been kind of rocked this election, I have no idea if the core will still support us."
After going around Napier polling booths this morning to greet the scrutineers he spent the rest of the day with family and friends, and was planning on heading to a Greens party later tonight.
As he waited for the results to come in, Democrats for Social Credit candidate Karl Matthys said he was feeling optimistic - not for his own chances, but that the left would be the winners tonight.
"I'm feeling well...not so much about my personal results, but I'm left-leaning and I hope the left coalition will take over from National," he said.
"I'm optimistic we'll have a new government."
His Saturday was spent at the Napier farmers market, taking a walk along Marine Parade, and spending time with family and friends.
The Taradale resident's big election plans for tonight were enjoying a nice dinner at home with his family, and watching together as the results rolled in.
"Quite a few people have said they've voted for me. I'm not going to unseat anybody, but if I get a few hundred votes, that'll make me happy."
