new zealand has long enjoyed the status of being a world leader when it comes to voting rights. on 19 september 1893, new zealand became the first country to allow women the right to vote. this can be largely accredited to the advocating efforts of kate sheppard. today, the right to vote is expressly provided for in domestic legislation; both in section 12 of the new zealand bill of rights act 1990 and section 74 of the electoral act 1993  and international treaties new zealand is party to, including the international covenant on civil and political rights.
