Spotlight on Wellington

  • Spotlight on Wellington: What the election means for Wellington

    19 OCT 2020 · In this Spotlight on Wellington special, Georgina Campbell and Katrina Bennett dissect some of the more interesting results from the Wellington electorates, and discuss what they mean for the likes of Let's Get Wellington Moving, housing - and even the Johnsonville Mall. Wellington has voted overwhelmingly in support of Labour - the whole lower North Island has turned red. Stand-outs include Otaki where Labour newcomer Terisa in-go-be ousted National's Tim Costley - Wairarapa where Labour's Kieran McAnulty was victorious - and of course, Hutt South, one of the closest battles in the country, with Labour's Ginny Andersen wresting it from National's Chris Bishop. Anderson and Bishop join them to discuss the results, alongside Ōhāriu’s MP Greg O’Connor. LISTEN ABOVE
