'''Ikaroa-Rāwhiti''' is a New Zealand parliamentary [[Māori electorates|Māori electorate]] that was formed for the {{NZ election link|1999}}. It covers the eastern North Island from [[East Cape]] south through [[Hawke's Bay]] and the [[Wairarapa]] to [[Wainuiomata]] and most of the [[Hutt Valley]], but not southern [[Lower Hutt]] or [[Wellington City]].

It was held by [[Parekura Horomia]] of the [[New Zealand Labour Party|Labour Party]] from 1999 until his death in 2013. A [[List of New Zealand by-elections|by-election]] to replace him was held on [[2013 Ikaroa-Rāwhiti by-election|29 June 2013]]. [[Meka Whaitiri]] held the seat for ten years under the [[New Zealand Labour Party|Labour Party]] before changing political allegiances. Whaitiri left the Labour Party in early May 2023 and joined [[Te Pāti Māori]]. According to a ruling by the speaker of the House, Whaitiri continued to represent the electorate, not on behalf of a party, but as an independent.<ref>{{cite web |title=Hon Meka Whaitiri |url=https://www.parliament.nz/en/mps-and-electorates/members-of-parliament/whaitiri-meka/ |publisher=[[New Zealand Parliament]] |access-date=5 May 2023}}</ref>
Labour's [[Cushla Tangaere-Manuel]] became MP in 2023. <ref>{{cite news |url=https://www.rnz.co.nz/news/political/500285/devastated-labour-mps-prepare-for-spell-in-political-wilderness |last=Scotcher |first=Katie |title=Devastated Labour MPs prepare for spell in political wilderness |website=[[Radio New Zealand]] |access-date=17 October 2023 |date=16 October 2023}}</ref>

Ikaroa-Rāwhiti is a New Zealand parliamentary Māori electorate that was formed for the 1999 election. It covers the eastern North Island from East Cape south through Hawke's Bay and the Wairarapa to Wainuiomata and most of the Hutt Valley, but not southern Lower Hutt or Wellington City.

It was held by Parekura Horomia of the Labour Party from 1999 until his death in 2013. A by-election to replace him was held on 29 June 2013. Meka Whaitiri held the seat for ten years under the Labour Party before changing political allegiances. Whaitiri left the Labour Party in early May 2023 and joined Te Pāti Māori. According to a ruling by the speaker of the House, Whaitiri continued to represent the electorate, not on behalf of a party, but as an independent.[1] Labour's Cushla Tangaere-Manuel became MP in 2023. [2]

Population centres[edit]

Gisborne

As the electorate's name suggests (ika "fish", roa "long", rāwhiti "east"), Ikaroa-Rāwhiti is a long electorate covering the eastern North Island (Te Ika-a-Māui).

The electorate includes the following population centres (from north to south):

In the 2013/14 redistribution, a minor boundary adjustment was undertaken. A small area, including the village of Tuai, was transferred to the Waiariki electorate.[3]

Tribal areas[edit]

The electorate includes the following tribal areas:

History[edit]

The electorate was formed for the 1999 election, which was won by Parekura Horomia of the Labour Party.[4] Horomia's death on 29 April 2013 triggered a by-election,[5] which was held on 29 June and won by Labour's Meka Whaitiri.[6] The Māori Party had nominated tribal leader Na Rongowhakaata Raihania.[7][8] and the Mana Party had selected television presenter Te Hamua Nikora as its candidate.[9][10] The Green Party had selected environmentalist and human rights advocate Marama Davidson.[11][12][13] Further candidates had been Michael Appleby for the Aotearoa Legalise Cannabis Party[11][14][15] plus two independent candidates.[11] Based on preliminary results, Whaitiri more than tripled her 2014 election night majority over Mana's Nikora. Also based on preliminary results, Marama Fox of the Māori Party was elected to Parliament as a list MP.[16]
