Carrera is an electoral district of the Enderronian Parliament in New Plymouth City. It was created in 2002 and first contested at the federal election later that year. It is named after Italian Enderronian civil engineer and activist John Felix Carrera (1933–1996), and is located in the western suburbs of New Plymouth.
The sitting member, since the 2018 federal election, is Isabella Bjornstad, the leader of Pirate Party Enderron.
==History==
Carrera was carved out of the neighbouring electorates of Burleigh, Epping and Kingston due to population growth in New Plymouth's west. It was created as a marginal seat, straddling the border between the working class inner west and more affluent outer western suburbs. The seat was won by the Social Democrats in 2002, before being lost to the Liberals in 2006. As the seat moved further west in successive redistributions into Liberal-friendly territory, it became known as a safe Liberal seat before Isabella Bjornstad narrowly won it in 2018 for the Pirate Party, amongst a Liberal meltdown in the New Plymouth metropolitan area.
