The electorate was created for the introduction of mixed-member proportional (MMP) representation in 1996 from the Porirua electorate, and from the southern part of the Kapiti electorate, consisting of Paraparaumu south of the airport, Raumati South and Raumati Beach. The 1996 election was won by Labour's Graham Kelly, who was member for the former Porirua electorate. He retired ahead of the 2002 election, Luamanuvao Winnie Laban became the new MP.

After the resignation of Laban 10 August 2010,[3] Faafoi on the resulting by-election with 10,980 votes (46.4%), becoming the first MP of Tokelauan descent.[4] Hekia Parata from the National Party was placed second and received 9,574 (41.6%), giving Faafoi a margin of 1,080 votes (4.82%).[5] This was a significant decrease of Laban's majority of 6,155 (17.7%) at the 2008 general election.[6] Faafoi more than doubled the margin in the 2011,[5] and had a 7,953 votes margin in the 2014.[7]
