Last day tomorrow (Tuesday 8 October) to post your local govt votes
As my colleague Cr Chris Calvi-Freeman has reminded you, If you haven't yet voted for your Mayor, city councillors, regional councillors and CCDHB members, time is running out. 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!
