Harawira voice for non-voters
Mana leader Hone Harawira says most of his support comes from people who don't vote
The Mana leader's attempt to take back Te Taitokerau this election fell short, with Labour's Kelvin Davis extending his majority by 3500 votes to 4370.
He's looking forward to continuing his work outside parliament.
"I'm just as comfortable being the voice for te pane me te rawa kore right across the country or working my little black ass off up here in the far north becasue the people I meet, the people I see, the people I love working with really are the people who have no voice. My difficulty of course, and I never have been able to tidy that up, is the people I get most support from are the people who don't actually vote," Mr Harawira says.
