Candidates for the Fight
/"YCTLINED below are the names of the candidates who have been nominated for the various electorates throughout the Dominion for the General Elections of this year. In every case the sitting candidate is mentioned, whether or not he be standing for the seat this year. An endeavour is made, by explanation in parentheses, to elucidate the position in districts where the names of electorates have been changed since the poll of 1925. In some cases the sitting members have been re-nominated, but In others the official seal of the party has not yet been attached to their candidature. Sitting candidates are marked • In cases where a candidate has offered his services, but where there is a possibility of not pressing his candidature past a selection ballot, his name is marked (?). It will be noted that one new urban electorate has been created in the North Island. This was first called “Auckland South” but subsequently altered to “Eden,” the old Eden electorate slightly altered being called "Auckland Suburbs.” The Ohinemuri electorate was eliminated, and a new electorate, named "Hauraki” substituted for it. In the South Island the Ashburton electorate is done away with, and Ellesmere also dispensed with, the name “Mid-Canterbury” being substituted for that particular locality. “Central Otago” is the name given to the electorate which hitherto was Wakatipu.
