Only two new electorates were created, and the Waipa electorate was one of them. It was created by splitting the area of the electorate.

It flows north for , passing through Ōtorohanga and Pirongia, before flowing into the Waikato River at Ngāruawāhia. It is the Waikato's largest tributary. The Waipā's main tributary is the Puniu River. In the headwaters upstream of Ōtorohanga the river can be very clear during low flow conditions. This section of the river flows through rough farmland and patches of native bush. In this clearer part of the river there can be very good fly fishing for trout but access to the river may be limited without landowner permission. The Waipā is prone to flooding in its lower reaches as flood flows can be over 100 times——those of dry flows and the river can rise up to . In 2013 Maniapoto Māori Trust Board and the riparian local councils set up a joint management agreement for the river, following the passing of Nga Wai o Ma ...
