Manurewa Marae voting results
The Manurewa Marae polling place is in Clendon Park, like two other polling places. As they are in the same suburb, you might expect them to be in the same ballpark for how people voted.
Here is the margin between the Maori Party candidate and the Labour candidate in each polling place:
- Manurewa Marae (advance): +39%
- Manurewa Marae +16%
- Clendon Community Centre (advance): +6%
- PAK’nSAVE Clendon -6%
- PAK’nSAVE Clendon (advance): -10%
- Clendon Community Centre -40%
This doesn’t prove anything, but it certainly suggests that it is a very bad idea to have a polling place at a Mara, where one candidate is the chief executive.
