We are acknowledging your Official Information Act request received on
Wednesday 22 September, requesting:

 

I am interested in the number of New Zealand voters who reside overseas.
As those enrolled may vote in an election if they have visited within 3
years prior to an election (I think 12 months for residents), I would be
interested in the following:

1) Number of overseas mailing/contact addresses on the roll in each
electorate together with the total number on the roll in that same
electorate.

2) the number of overseas votes cast in the last general election by each
electorate, and the number of all votes cast in each electorate.

I would like to see the materiality of expat voters and compare the voting
rates of expats against the voting rates in the at-home population.

 

We will respond as soon as reasonably practicable within 20 working days.
