Mary Dreaver of the Labour Party won the by-election; she was the third woman elected to the House of Representatives. Background and candidatesMary Dreaver was chosen as the Labour Party candidate. Previously, she had unsuccessfully sought Labour nomination for the {{By-election link|Parnell|1930}} in the {{NZ electorate link|Parnell}} electorate and {{NZ electorate link|Grey Lynn}} electorate in 1931.[1] In the {{NZ election link|1938}} she stood for Labour in {{NZ electorate link|Remuera}}, coming second.[2]The National Party chose not to stand an official candidate for the by-election. However, William Brockway Darlow entered the contest as an "independent" National candidate. He was subsequently endorsed by the National Party for the next general election scheduled to take place later that year, but was postponed until 1943 due to World War II.[3] Darlow had previously contested the seat in 1931 for the United Party, one of National's predecessors.[4] Former Auckland City Councilor Norman Douglas stood for the Labour splinter group, the Democratic Labour Party (DLP). As was predicted, the inclusion of a Democratic Labour candidate split Labour's vote. He was president of the DLP's Grey Lynn branch, secretary of the district council and a member of the DLP national executive.[5] ResultsThe following table contains the election results: {{Waitemata by-election, 1941}}Dreaver became the third woman to enter New Zealand's House of Representatives.
