  • The 2004 Christchurch mayoral election was part of the 2004 New Zealand local elections. On 9 October of that year, elections were held for the Mayor of Christchurch plus other local government roles. Incumbent Garry Moore successfully contested a third term in office with a decisive majority. The second-placed candidate, Aaron Keown, received almost 50,000 fewer votes than Moore. Keown ran as an Independent, but contested the 2008 general election for ACT New Zealand, standing in the Waimakariri electorate. The third-placed candidate, Jamie Gough, was only 18 years old at the time.
    Both Keown and Gough were elected Christchurch City Councillors at the 2010 local elections.
