New Zealanders voted in the 2023 election, resulting in a change of government as the conservative National Party, led by Christopher Luxon, emerged victorious, ending the six-year reign of the liberal Labour Party. The election marked a shift away from the warm and inclusive politics of former Prime Minister Jacinda Ardern. Concerns about the soaring cost of living dominated the campaign, with voters seeking change. Luxon, a former chief executive of Air New Zealand, will now take on the role of prime minister.
