It is just 44 days to go until the Kenepuru meet the candidates event.
Now is the time to double check which electorate you’re actually in.
Some suburbs (eg Newlands) are now split by the new boundary, others have been amalgamated with “Wellington Bays” to the south.
JCA candidate events feature the candidate (over the party), their moment at the lectern and their on the spot answers during Q&A time.
Candidates, and their RSVP status as at 15 Sept 2026 (in party alphabetic order):
| Candidate | Party | RSVP Status |
| Lan Pham | Green Party | Pencilled in. |
| Barbara Edmonds | Labour Party | Unable to attend |
| Matthew Evetts | National Party | Confirmed |
| Jon Blackshaw | New Zealand First | Confirmed |
| Robert Mason | Opportunities Party | Confirmed |

I hope to see you all there either in person or as a live stream on the JCA Youtube channel
Darren,
JCA President.
comrade the MC job. It’s unlikely I’ll be able to commit to this. I have a grandchild — my first — due about that time
