## Resource

National Party has selected Coral Raukawa to challenge incumbent Debbie Ngārewa-Packer in the Māori electorate of Te Tai Hauāuru, marking their return after a five-year absence. With a 20-year background in education and employment across the central North Island, Raukawa emphasizes fixing the basics—stabilizing housing, slowing inflation, boosting jobs, and improving Māori education. She’ll face off against Te Pāti Māori’s Ngārewa-Packer and Labour’s Fulbright scholar Te Pūoho Katene, setting the stage for a fiercely contested, high-stakes election that could reshape the region’s political landscape.
