The 1996 New Zealand general election was held on 12 October 1996 to determine the composition of the 45th New Zealand Parliament. It was notable for being the first election to be held under the new mixed-member proportional (MMP) electoral system,and produced a parliament considerably more diverse than previous elections. It saw the National Party,led by Jim Bolger,retain its position in government,but only after protracted negotiations with the smaller New Zealand First party to form a coalition. New Zealand First's position as "kingmaker",able to place either of the two major parties into government,was a significant election outcome.
