1Campaign Report In general, the representation of women in New Zealand's House of Representatives has been patchy, with women holding just eight of the ninety-two seats in the most recent Parliament. This election, there appears to be a concerted effort to get more women elected to Parliament with 76 female candidates across the campaigning parties.
