Helensville's over-quota has been solved by the creation of the Upper Harbour electorate, while Hunua has lost the area south of the Auckland Region boundary to <a href="/wiki/Waikato_(New_Zealand_electorate)" title="Waikato (New Zealand electorate)">Waikato</a> to bring it within quota. </p><p>In Christchurch, the under-quota <a href="/wiki/Christchurch_East_(New_Zealand_electorate)" class="mw-redirect" title="Christchurch East (New Zealand electorate)">Christchurch East</a> and <a href="/wiki/Christchurch_Central_(New_Zealand_electorate)" class="mw-redirect" title="Christchurch Central (New Zealand electorate)">Christchurch Central</a> electorates took population from <a href="/wiki/Waimakariri_(New_Zealand_electorate)" title="Waimakariri (New Zealand electorate)">Waimakariri</a> in the north and from <a href="/wiki/Port_Hills_(New_Zealand_electorate)" title="Port Hills (New Zealand electorate)">Port Hills</a> in the south. While it was correctly predicted Christchurch East would remain a Labour seat, the prediction that the marginal Christchurch Central electorate would move in Labour's favour proved false; the seat instead swung in National's favour. The loss of Labour-leaning urban parts of Waimakariri made it a safer seat for National, which increased it majority from 642 votes in 2011 to 2,133 in 2014. The <a href="/wiki/Halswell" title="Halswell">Halswell</a>-Oaklands-<a href="/wiki/Westmorland,_New_Zealand" title="Westmorland, New Zealand">Westmorland</a> area moved from Selwyn into Port Hills to compensate for Port Hills' loss and to bring Selwyn within quota. As Halswell-Oaklands-Westmorland are predominantly National-leaning, it caused the Labour-held electorate of Port Hills to become more marginal.<sup id="cite_ref-Small2013_29-1" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-Small2013-29"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>28<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup> </p><p>In Wellington, the Labour-leaning <a href="/wiki/Hutt_South_(New_Zealand_electorate)" class="mw-redirect" title="Hutt South (New Zealand electorate)">Hutt South</a> electorate took the National-leaning western hill suburbs of Lower Hutt from <a href="/wiki/%C5%8Chariu_(New_Zealand_electorate)" class="mw-redirect" title="Ōhariu (New Zealand electorate)">Ōhariu</a> and <a href="/wiki/Rimutaka_(New_Zealand_electorate)" class="mw-redirect" title="Rimutaka (New Zealand electorate)">Rimutaka</a>, in exchange for Rimutaka taking the Labour-leaning <a href="/wiki/State_housing_in_New_Zealand" title="State housing in New Zealand">state housing</a> suburb of <a href="/wiki/Naenae" title="Naenae">Naenae</a>.
