Election for New Labour President

Two nominations have been received for the position of Labour Party President vacated with the recent resignation of Moira Coatsworth. A vote will now proceed, closing on February 26th.

The two nominees are Robert Gallagher, current Senior Vice President of the Party; and Nigel Haworth, current Policy Council representative on the Party’s New Zealand Council.

The election is held under the same voting entitlement rules as Labour’s Annual Conference, with around 930 votes being divided between electorate and branch organisations, people elected to public office under a Labour banner (including MPs) and affiliates. Around 75% of the voting strength is held by electorates and branches.
