History
AJPANZ was founded after discussions with the Animal Justice Party in Australia, who also gave permission to use the name. The original policies of AJPANZ were closely aligned with the Australian party.[5] AJPANZ was registered as an Incorporated Society on 11 November 2022.[1] In May 2023 the party was granted $66,332 in broadcasting funding for the 2023 New Zealand general election, provisional upon registration.[6] The party applied for registration with the Electoral Commission on 31 July 2023.[7] It was registered on 16 August 2023.[8]
The party ran 17 candidates in the 2023 New Zealand general election.[9] Two polls conducted for 1 News in September 2023 indicated that support for the Animal Justice Party was around 0.3 to 0.4 percent.[10] The party ultimately received 0.17% of the party vote.[11]
The party ran a candidate in the 2023 Port Waikato by-election, coming fourth.[3]
