Reg Boorman

Reg Boorman

Reginald George (Reg) Boorman (born 1935) was a New Zealand politician of the Labour Party.

He won the Wairarapa seat in 1984, when he defeated Ben Couch. Following the 1987 election, he was defeated by Wyatt Creech after an appeal to the Electoral Court.

On election night 1987, Boorman won by one vote, but Creech later challenged that result on the grounds that Boorman had violated new laws about election spending. Creech also challenged more than 200 votes (on various grounds). The Electoral Court approved Creech's petition, and Creech won the seat in 1988 with a majority of 34 votes (9994 to 9960).
