Kōrero: Political parties

Social Credit pamphlet

This pamphlet dates from 1975, which was an election year. The party did well, gaining a growing level of support, but it did not win any seats. However, party leader Bruce Beetham was elected as the member of Parliament for the Rangitīkei electorate in the next two elections (1978 and 1981).
