Reading this comparison
Reading this tab: figures here are the electorate (candidate) vote — the vote that elects each local MP.
Under MMP this is separate from the party vote, which determines each party's overall share of seats in Parliament.
A party can win few electorates but still enter Parliament (or govern) on its party vote share, so seat counts below are not the election result.
Electorate seats won, by party
Of 72 electorates — Port Waikato's poll was deferred after a candidate's death, so it sits outside this count
Electorate vote share, by party
General seats vs Māori seats vs combined — share of the candidate vote
Turnout vs. competitiveness
Each point is an electorate: turnout % against the winner's margin as a share of valid votes cast (lower = a tighter race). Coloured by winning party.
