Clevedon (New Zealand electorate)

Clevedon was a New Zealand parliamentary electorate from 1987 to 1993 and then from 2002 to 2008.

For the first six-year period the seat was held by Warren Kyd. For the second six-year period, the seat was held by Judith Collins.^[1]

Population Centres

Clevedon takes in the urban population centres of Flat Bush, Botany Downs and Dannemora to the west, Beachlands and Maraetai to the north and the sparsely populated Hunua Ranges to the east.

History

The Clevedon seat was first created in 1987. The seat was recreated in 2002, replacing the seat of Hunua.

Under finalised boundary changes for the 2008 general election, the Clevedon seat ceased to exist, with its population centres being distributed among the new seat of Botany, a redrawn and renamed seat of Papakura and the resurrected seat of Hunua. National Party MP Judith Collins, who held Clevedon since its inception, won Papakura in 2008.

Clevedon was always a safe National seat.
