Did you vote in the recent elections?

Nicola Brennan-Tupara Reporter from Matamata Chronicle

Hi neighbours,
Over 50 per cent of eligible Matamata-Piako voters voted in the latest local body elections,.
That's a massive turnover from 2016 show when the district had the lowest voter turnout in the country at 24.1 per cent.
So did you vote in this year's elections? And if so why?
