Jacinda Ardern’s shock resignation sparked a push on Friday for New Zealand to choose its first Maori prime minister, as a small pack of candidates emerged for the top job.

WELLINGTON, New Zealand —

Ardern resigned with no clear successor and her ruling Labour Party is now scrambling to settle on a replacement. Chris Hipkins, 44, is the early frontrunner after Ardern’s deputy Grant Robertson swiftly ruled himself out of the race. “Obviously we’d love one day for there to be a Maori prime minister,” said influential Labour minister Kelvin Davis.

The 42-year-old was responsible for lifting New Zealand’s minimum wage and has considerable backing in the union movement.
