We publish statistics each month showing how many people are enrolled in each Māori electorate, general electorate, local council district, and council voting area.
We also publish statistics showing the number of people of Māori descent on the Māori roll and the general roll, broken down by electorate and age.
The following cumulative table will be updated monthly to show roll changes and new enrolments for voters of Māori descent from 1 April to 6 August 2026, which is the deadline for Māori who are already enrolled to change rolls before the 2026 General Election. New enrolments include 17-year-olds enrolling on the provisional roll.

The number of electorates
The number of general and Māori electorates is calculated after each census by Stats NZ using population data from the Census and electoral roll data.
In 2024, Stats NZ calculated the number of electorates for the 2026 General Election. There will be 64 general electorates and seven Māori electorates.
