The 1992 Porirua mayoral election was part of the New Zealand local elections held that same year. The elections were held for the role of Mayor of Porirua plus other local government positions including thirteen city councillors, also elected triennially. The polling was conducted using the standard first-past-the-post electoral method.
The incumbent Mayor, John Burke, stood for a fourth term and was successful. He was opposed by former member of the Wellington Harbour Board and Wellington Hospital Board Reverend Don Borrie. Labour maintaned a majority on the council, while Borrie was elected to the council as well as five other independents.[1]
