It's looking like South versus West Auckland in the battle for the Tāmaki Makaurau electorate.
Labour's Peeni Henare has held the seat for the previous two terms - winning it by an almost 20 percent margin last time out
But his two high-profile rivals, the Māori Party's John Tamihere and the Green Party's Marama Davidson have picked up the wero - and they' are backed by solid voter bases in West and South Auckland respectively.
Meriana Johnsen travelled across the electorate and filed this report.
