| has gloss | eng: In New Zealand, an electorate is a voting district for Parliamentary elections. In more informal discussion, electorates are often called seats. The most formal description, Electoral District, is rarely seen outside electoral legislation. Before 1996, all Members of Parliament were directly chosen for office by the voters of an electorate. In 2008 under the MMP electoral system, 70 of the usually 120 seats in Parliament will be filled by electorate members, with the remainder being filled from party lists in order to achieve proportional representation (there were 69 electorate seats in 2005). |
