	New Zealand general election, 2005 - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		The election saw a strong recovery by National: it won 21 more seats than at the 2002 election, when it had suffered its worst result since it first fought a general election in 1938.
		On 17 October, Clark announced a new coalition agreement that saw the return of her minority government coalition with the Progressive Party, with confidence-and-supply support from New Zealand First and from United Future.
		New Zealand First's involvement in such a coalition would have run counter to Peters' promise to deal with the biggest party, and Turia and Sharples would have had difficulty in justifying supporting National after their supporters' overwhelming support for Labour in the party vote.

	New Zealand - Printer-friendly - MSN Encarta
		New Zealand was initially made a dependency of New South Wales, Australia, but in 1841 it was constituted a separate crown colony.
		The European population of New Zealand grew from about 1,000 in the 1830s to nearly 60,000 in 1858, when parity with Maori was reached, and then rocketed to 500,000 by the early 1880s.
		New Zealand politics from the 1850s to the 1880s were dominated by a small elite of men who, having prospered in business and sheep farming, formed a landed gentry.

	NEW ZEALAND: The debate on immigration policy
		New immigrants are attracted by an improved New Zealand economy, which by many measures now outperforms Australia's; unemployment in New Zealand, for instance, is 6.2%, vs. 8.4% in Australia.
		For now, the new rules are having an effect: general applications for residency dropped to 414 in the four months ending in February, from 1,088 in the same period a year earlier.
		New Zealand still has a very good image." New Zealanders, though, are struggling with that image--and whether what they want to project is Peters' vision for the country or the cheerful promise of the would-be immigrant's application form.

	Political Reform
		In a close election, the outcome is frequently decided by the candidate who is able to purchase the greatest number of media ads.
		The basic approach of proportional representation is simple: legislators are elected in multimember districts instead of single-member districts, and the number of seats that a party wins in an election is proportional to the amount of its support among voters.
		Even when the generous pension arrangements are considered, the compensation package for elected officials is far below the type of salary that most qualified candidates would receive in the private or university sector.
