The Botany electorate included part of the old Clevedon electorate held by Judith Collins, her National Party colleague.
Collins had originally indicated to seek nomination for the seat of Howick (which the Electoral Commission later redrew and renamed to Botany following objections to the boundaries to the neighbouring electorate of Pakuranga), but then stood for the Papakura seat, which also shared common boundaries with Clevedon.
Wong's decision was based partly on the fact that 33% of the Botany electorate is Asian.
On 12 November 2010 Wong resigned as a Minister after misusing her parliamentary travel perks for a trip to China on which her husband conducted private business activities, which is specifically prohibited.
