Meet the Candidates meetings - HCC by-election
Due to a number of people telling me they don't know the candidates, I have decided to host two Meet the Candidates events for the upcoming Hamilton City Council by-election.
The Hamilton East ward was left vacant after the passing of highly respected Councillor Philip Yeung.
MEET THE CANDIDATES EVENTS
Event 1:
St Johns Methodist Church
10-11:30am
Wednesday, 7 February, 2018
20 Wellington Street, Hamilton East
Event 2:
The Quadrant Pub and Kitchen

Thursday, 8 February 2018
391 Victoria Street, Hamilton
6 pm: Casual meet and greet over dinner and drinks with candidates and Jamie. Each person will pay for their own dinner/drinks. The “official” part starts at 7:30pm
15 candidates have put their name forward for the Hamilton East ward. All candidates have been invited to attend both Meet the Candidates events.
Friday 26 January: Postal voting period opens
Saturday 17 February: Election Day and preliminary results
If you would like to hear more about the candidates, in order to decide who would best represent you, please feel free to attend either event. You are welcome to bring your friends and families too.
Warm regards,
Jamie Strange - Hamilton-based Labour list MP

Where do you think sells the best sausages?
Through all the tumult of existence, one thing remains unchanged - the makings of a good sausage.
Frankton Butchery owner Jim Ashton reckons people are looking for something reliable and they find it at his Commerce St store, whether its 15kg-worth or a single snarler.
