The2004 New Zealand local elections (Māori :Nga Pōtitanga ā-Rohe 2004 ) were triennial elections that were held ending 9 October 2007 to elect local mayors and councillors, regional councillors, and members of local boards.
Alldistrict health boards and ten district or city councils (Kaipara ,Papakura ,Matamata-Piako ,Thames-Coromandel ,Kāpiti Coast ,Porirua ,Wellington ,Marlborough ,Dunedin , and theChatham Islands ) used thesingle transferable vote (STV) method for the 2004 local elections.[ 1] first past the post (FPP).
A private company, elections.com and its subsidiary Datamail, had been engaged by seven councils, eighteen DHBs, and one licensing trust with operating the STV elections. During the weekend of the elections, it was discovered that when voting papers were transferred to computer-readable data, not all data were correctly recorded. TheOffice of the Auditor-General became involved and tasked with confirming the election results. The final results for these elections became available in early November, nearly one month after the local election. The government initiated aselect committee inquiry.[ 2]
Theregional level of government in New Zealand is organised into areas controlled by regional councils.
