释义 |
The 1885 Southern Maori by-election was a by-election held on 10 June 1885 in the {{NZ electorate link|Southern Maori}} electorate during the 9th New Zealand Parliament. The by-election was caused by the resignation of the incumbent, Hori Kerei Taiaroa, when he was re-appointed to the Legislative Council. Taiaroa has been appointed to the Legislative Council in February 1879, but in August 1880 had been disqualified over a technicality, a cause of bitterness and resentment among Māori. When appointed by Sir George Grey Taiaroa held (and continued to hold) a salaried (government) office, hence was not eligible to sit in the Council, despite having attended three sessions.[1] The by-election was won by Tame Parata.
