Voting Papers Missing or Thrown in Rubbish Bin
WDC DENBY WARD BY-ELECTION
I am concerned about the voting process for mailing votes out and sending them back in.
The Resthome received mail for residents on Tuesday and by Thursday we simply can’t find my dad’s voting papers.
It’s not like my dad’s family don’t see him and care for him and yes this isn’t the case for every resident.
Where is his voting papers? I came in to sit with him to discuss Candidates. Staff didn’t care. I made a complaint to management.
So now we don’t know if he voted, someone else has voted for him or was his vote wasted. So can a staff member or management “Help with your voting document”.
There is easy 20-100 plus residents in each Resthome or facility in the Denby Ward this could swing the vote.
When are applying or registering to vote for the local elections how do they prove you are real or actually live in Whangarei?
Poll: Do you think banning gang patches is reasonable?
With the government cracking down on gangs, it is now illegal for gang members to display their insignia in public places whether through clothing or their property.
This means arrests can be made if these patches are worn in places like restaurants, shops, on public transport or ferries, and on airplanes. Arrests were made recently at a funeral.
Do you think this ban is reasonable?

Poll: Should all neighbours have to contribute to improvements?
An Auckland court has ruled a woman doesn’t have to contribute towards the cost of fixing a driveway she shares with 10 neighbours.
When thinking about fences, driveways or tree felling, for example, do you think all neighbours should have to pay if the improvements directly benefit them?
