You'll need to post your voting papers by tomorrow Tuesday 8 October, to ensure they'll be received for counting by noon on Saturday (12 Oct). But you can also drop them into libraries right up to Saturday. And if you don't have voting papers, go online to the Wellington City Council's website or ring them to get yours or find out whether you're eligible. You will need to do it in the next few days.

I am standing for re-election to the Wellington Constituency of GWRC and for re-election to CCDHB. I am happy to answer any last-minute questions about my policies if you wish. Happy voting!

The National Party is considering a policy of fining parents $3000 if their children drop out of school and don't enter further education or training.

Simon Bridges says "The reality is if you're not in work, education or training, you're going to be languishing in a dole queue, and the evidence is potentially for a long time". Do you agree with this policy? Should parents be fined?
