Ko Te Ururoa Flavell tērā e pāpare atu ana i te whakaeke a te Rōpū Reipa ki ngā tūru Māori me te ārahi i ngā tatau pōti mō tōna takiwā.
Ko ngā kohinga pōti o te wā a Whakaata Māori kei te whakaatu he au tōna i te rohe pōti o Te Waiariki, ā, ko te whai a te kaiwhakapaoho ō-mua a Tamati Coffey hei kaitono kei ngā tai papaki tū e rehurehu ana.
Ko te tautoko mō Flavell hei kaitono ko te 60.1% o ngā kaipōti e 400, ā, ko tā Reipa kaitono a Coffey ko te 39.9%.
"He whakaputanga pai. Ehara i te mea ka noho noa ake ki te kāinga ki reira whakatā ai kāo," e mea ana a Flavell.
"Me haere tonu ki te kimi i ngā pōti o te wā me te tūmanako anō hoki e tika ana ngā tatauranga o Pouaka Whakaata Māori."
I ngā reanga ā-pakeke, ka pōturi te whanake whakamua a te kaiārahi takirua o Te Pāti Māori. Ko te tautoko mōna i waenga i ngā kaipōti 18-24 ko te 37.5%, ka piki ake ki te 47.1% i te hunga 25-34 me te 52.6% i te hunga 35-44.
Heoi mō te hunga rangatahi kei te tītaha atu ki a Coffey.
Tere rawa te puta o tōna ihu ki ngā kaipōti rangatahi 18-24 ko te tautoko mōna ko te 62.5%, ko te 52.9% i te hunga 25-34 me te 47.4% i te hunga 35-44.
"I"m of a younger demographic. I speak their language. The stuff that I say cuts through. So, yeah, I'm happy about that," said Coffey.
"The polls are a bit random. If they were consistently saying that then I might have a cause for concern. But it is very inconsistent with what we understand."
