New Labour candidate takes new electorate of Taieri
To win the Taieri seat, Labour's Ingrid Leary and her team attended 134 street corner meetings, knocked on 4150 doors, phoned 11,000 voters and delivered 50,000 brochures.
Leary said she was ready to start work for the electorate, and be part of a strong southern team in Parliament.
Leary relocated from Waiheke Island to Dunedin last year, where she previously went to law school.
She has an impressive CV, including an award-winning career in broadcasting, and a more recent role as the director of the British Council.
Leary said her whole career had been about “creating a space for voices who don't get heard”.
