Te Tawharau In the 1999 election, Te Tawharau stood in affiliation with the Mana Maori Movement, and three Te Tawharau candidates appeared on the Mana Maori Movement list. Te Tawharau therefore had no list of its own. However, the Mana Maori Movement section of this page identifies those candidates attached to Te Tawharau.
