By-election dual vote referrals

Oct 10, 2025 | News

The Electoral Commission has referred 5 individuals to the Police who appear to have voted more than once at the 2025 Tāmaki Makaurau by-election.

Dual voting is an offence under section 215 of the Electoral Act 1993.

As these matters are now with the Police, the Electoral Commission will not be commenting further.
