How they voted
The marriage equality bill passed by a huge 78 – 40 80 – 40. The voting sheets are below. An analaysis by party will follow later.
Now analysed by party. I understand Banks and Dunne did do proxy votes in favour which have now been accepted or are likely to be. Counting those, the voting stats are:
- National 30-29
- Labour 30-3 (1 not vote – Raymond Huo)
- Greens 14-0
- NZ First 0-8
- Maori 3-0
- Mana 1-0
- ACT 1-0
- United Future 1-0
- Total 80-40 (1 non vote)
