Шаблон:Short description Шаблон:Use dmy dates The 1887 Northern Maori by-election was a by-election during the 9th New Zealand Parliament. The election was held on 9 May 1887.

The seat of Northern Maori became vacant following the death of the sitting member Ihaka Hakuene on 6 April.

The by-election was won by Wi Katene (described as a Stout-Vogel government supporter) by a margin of three votes, contrary to expectations. However none of the newspaper reports give the number of votes recorded for each candidate.[1]

Although Sydney Taiwhanga petitioned the Supreme Court about irregularities in the poll; [2][3] the petition was later withdrawn.[4]
