Politician Paturiri Toautu will
be throwing his hat in the ring and once again contest the
Te Tai Tokerau Maori Seat in this year’s upcoming
elections. He first ran in 2020 but was unsuccessful. He
also ran for the Kaipara Mayoralty in 2019, plus the Kaipara
Maori Ward Seat in 2022, but unfortunately was also
unsuccessful in both these campaigns as well. However, he
does not regard any of these losses as defeats, but rather
learning experiences. As such he is confident that with the
knowledge he gained from those three Political Campaigns
this time he will be successful and win the 2023 Te Tai
Tokerau Electoral Seat from the incumbent Kelvin Davis
through his upcoming pro-active Online Political
Campaign.
Also, even though he lost
the Maori Ward Seat, he did have one political success last
year, that being when he organized the Karakia Protest
March, which was very fruitful with an excellent
turnout.
