Election Special on East FM this Sunday morn

Phil from East Tamaki Heights

Hi everyone, PJ here. Being a community radio station, East FM is not political, but for two hours this Sunday morning we’ll be talking about the results of this Saturday’s New Zealand general election, being described as the most important in our nation’s history.

I’ll report the polling day results from across the country, talk live to candidates who stood in East Auckland electorate races, and provide analysis of what has been a very long and exhausting campaign – in these unsettling and challenging Covid-19 times.

Please join me, PJ Taylor, for the East FM Election Special, this Sunday, October 18, from 8am to 10am (NZ time).

Station manager Mike Rowse will produce the East FM Election Special, in the show slot that he usually DJ’s the Rockin’ Breakfast.

You have until 7pm on Saturday, October 17, to exercise your democratic right and vote in the general election and in the two referendums.

East FM, East Auckland's vibrant community-driven volunteer public service radio station, broadcasts on 88.1FM and 107.1FM on local frequencies, globally at www.eastfm.nz... and on NZ app Radio Schmadio.

Some Choice News!

Kia pai from Sharing the Good Stuff

Many New Zealand gardens aren’t seeing as many monarch butterflies fluttering around their swan plants and flower beds these days — the hungry Asian paper wasp has been taking its toll.

Thanks to people like Alan Baldick, who’s made it his mission to protect the monarch, his neighbours still get to enjoy these beautiful butterflies in their own backyards.

Thinking about planting something to invite more butterflies, bees, and birds into your garden?

Thanks for your mahi, Alan! We hope this brings a smile!
