Last Call For Votes!

Ganga from Ngaruawahia

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.

We want to know: Should mining projects like this move ahead?

Keen to dig deeper? Mike White has the scoop.
