It has been good to see the efforts candidates have made to send flyers, visit and to be available for meetings, by email and by phone. The profiles posted on the Tamahere Forum are here.

As of October 6, our Ward leads the WDC voting returns at 25.3%.

Many of you will have voted already but if you are still deciding or haven’t got round to it time is short to ensure your votes are counted. While the closing date is Saturday postal votes need to be posted in good time for arrival and if you want to drop your forms in person locally you will need to visit the Tamahere Council Office before 3 p.m. on Friday October 10.
