Turnout in the next New Zealand General Election

Long Description

This contract pays 1 cent for each 1% of the FINAL turnout in the next General Election. This contract's payout per share is capped at $1. For example, a turnout of 76.45% would pay out $0.7645.

Judging Criteria 

The purpose of this contract is to determine the turnout at the next New Zealand General Election.

"next New Zealand General Election" refers to the first General Election after the launch of this contract.

The contract is based on total party votes cast, including informal and disallowed votes, on both the general and Maori roll, divided by the electors on the master toll, and will not close until close until the final election results have been published.

For the avoidance of doubt, based on the information at http://eletionresults.govt.nz/electionresults_2011/e9/html/e9_part9_1.html, the contract would have paid $0.7421 in 2011. The comparable official table will be used to determine the closing price after the 2014 General Election.
