Auckland Council 2022 Local Elections voter participation by sa2

I would like to have a data set that shows the numbers of people voting by Statistical Area 2 (sa2) for the 2022 Auckland Council Elections. If possible, I would like it to be grouped by sa2, ward, council seat. Further, if possible, I would like a data set on Auckland Home Ownership/Tenure by Statistical Area 2 (sa2) as of the 2022 Auckland local election night. If possible, I would like it to be grouped by sa2, ward, council seat. I would like it in excel file format.

I am writing a dissertation exploring the link between home ownership and local election/democracy/democratic participation.

I know that Auckland Council's RIMU has already produced reports on the link between deprivation and voter participation, however I would like to go into a finer grain and specifically look at home ownership and vote participation.


Response from
Electoral Commission

Different agency responsible

Kia Ora, The Electoral Commission cannot provide statistics on voting for local body elections. While we provide enrolment services for local body elections, the elections themselves are administered by local councils: https://www.elections.nz/democracy-in-nz/about-elections/what-are-local-elections/ Stats NZ will have data on home ownership from the census (though not likely as specific as LBE election night.) Cheers, Matthew Electoral Commission
