1882 Stanmore by-election
The 1882 Stanmore by-election was a by-election held on 12 July 1882 in the electorate during the 8th New Zealand Parliament.
The by-election was caused by the election of the incumbent MP Walter Pilliet being voided on a petition on 20 February 1882.
The seat was retained by Pilliet.
Initially a 0 was mistaken for a 9 and the total for the Hon E. Richardson was wrong.
And the Waikato Times published a grossly erroneous poll result.Results
