It was partly redrawn in 2007 and now also includes Royal Oak, Onehunga, and Point England.
The seat is currently held by Labour MP for Maungakiekie Vui Mark Gosche who’s stepping down from politics to be closer to his family in Auckland. Vui has served as electorate MP for Maungakiekie for 8 year…winning a 6450 voting majority over his nearest rival, National’s Paul Goldsmith. The latter scored less than 10,000 votes.

Asenati has already responded. She is media savvy this woman. We hope to hear soon from Peseta Sam Lotu-Iiga. Sent through an email to his national.org.nz address earlier today. We will publish their responses tomorrow. So watch this space.
Currently the seat is held by retiring Labour MP Vui Mark Gosche who’s held the seat with a 6450 majority. In his place, CTU Secretary Carol Beaumont will campaign heavily to retain the seat under Labour.
