ACT leader and Epsom MP David Seymour's found his Youth MP, by holding an election among local high school students.
Valentyn Santhara from St Cuthbert's College has won the vote.
David Seymour says she will head to Wellington next year as the only Youth MP democratically elected to Youth Parliament.
He says she's shown political nous, running a very successful campaign.
Mr Seymour says it's been great to see so many young New Zealanders engaging in politics and actively campaigning to be elected.
