Preliminary and progress voting statistics were made public on Monday 10 October on the Local Elections 2022 website. Final results were received late today (14 October 2022) and are now also available on the council website.

Final results show Moko Tepania increasing his preliminary vote tally by 270 in his run for the mayoralty, taking the final result to 7805 votes. This confirms his first term as Mayor. His nearest rival, Ann Court, received 7362 votes.
