In the 2017 general election he ran for the Labour Party in the Ohariu electorate, and won it with a majority of 1,051. Early lifeO'Connor was born in the Buller District on the West Coast before moving to Wellington.[1] His family were Irish Catholic and O'Connor stated "growing up there's a fairly healthy disrespect for the law" where he grew up.[2] Police careerO'Connor served in the New Zealand Police for almost four decades ending his career with the rank of Senior Sergeant.[1] He was later elected President of the New Zealand Police Association in 1995.[1] His time as President was highly politicized with O'Connor weighing into political debates that concerned the Police force, particularly in regards to arming officers with firearms. O'Connor called for arming the police in New Zealand and also proposed routine arming of front line response police officers.[3] He retired as President in 2016, serving a record 21 years as the Police Association's head and regarded raising the Police Association's credibility as his main achievement during his tenure.[1] He also spent time serving as the chair of the International Council of Police Representatives Association (ICPRA).[1] Political career{{NZ parlbox header|align=left}}{{NZ parlbox|term=52nd |start={{NZ election link year|2017}} |end=present |list=41 |party=New Zealand Labour Party |electorate={{NZ electorate link|Ōhāriu}} }}{{NZ parlbox footer}} Upon his retirement from the Police Association, O'Connor was asked whether he was considering a career in politics, but he said he had no plans to do so at that time.[2] However, on 1 February 2017 O'Connor confirmed he was seeking the Labour Party nomination for the seat of {{NZ electorate link|Ōhāriu}} in the {{NZ election link|2017}} to challenge incumbent Peter Dunne of United Future.[4] On 12 February it was revealed that O'Connor had won the Labour nomination for Ōhariu.[5] O'Connor was also ranked 41 on Labour's party list for the election.[6] He won the seat by a margin of 1,051 votes.[7] Personal lifeO'Connor lives in Wellington with his wife Desley.
