• About: The Waiariki electorate is one of seven Māori electorates. It comprises the Bay of Plenty region and Taupō District including part of the volcanic plateau. Its eastern border begins at Cape Runaway on the East Cape of the North Island. From there it extends southwest to south of Tūrangi and the Kaimanawa Mountains. The western boundary then tracks northwards incorporating the western edge of Lake Taupō and the area west of Rotorua before terminating at the Bay of Plenty coast at Waihi Beach. Waiariki includes the major population centres of Tauranga Whakatāne Rotorua and Taupō. • More Info: https://www.parliament.nz/en/mps-and-electorates/electorate-profiles/waiariki-electorate-profile/
