Last Call For Votes!
By this point, many of you would have already voted - well done, and thank you; you’ve done your part to make democracy real. But the final few hours still matter - if you know someone who hasn’t voted yet, like a neighbour, friend or family member, do give them a gentle nudge. Or maybe even offer them a lift into town if they need one? When we encourage one another to take part, we strengthen more than the process - we strengthen community. Let’s make sure every voice that wants to be heard, is heard!
*Please note that every vote must go directly into a ballot box now - posted votes won’t make it in time to be counted. Voting closes at 12 noon, Saturday.
Poll: Are Kiwis allergic to “exuberance”? 🥝
In The Post’s opinion piece on the developments set to open across Aotearoa in 2026, John Coop suggests that, as a nation, we’re “allergic to exuberance.”
We want to know: Are we really allergic to showing our excitement?
Is it time to lean into a more optimistic view of the place we call home? As big projects take shape and new opportunities emerge, perhaps it’s worth asking whether a little more confidence (and enthusiasm!) could do us some good.
