Rawiri Waititi has been confirmed as the new co-leader of the Māori Party - pending special votes confirming his win of the Waiariki electorate.
He'll lead alongside Debbie Ngarewa-Packer.
Mr Waititi edged out Labour Party MP Tamati Coffey in the Bay of Plenty-based seat - winning by just over 400 votes.
The special vote results are set to be released next Friday.
