Voting stats for 24 September 2025

The Team from Whangarei District Council

Big friendly "Kia ora" to the 8,125 people who have voted in Whangarei District so far! We're stoked to see a strong start in our voting stats but there's still 87.9% of eligable voters who haven't ranked their candidates yet.

If you don't have your voting papers we can help you cast a Special Vote. Come and see us at Te Iwitahi (civic centre) or the Ruakākā service centre. We also have some Special Vote events, like on Saturday 4 October 2025 at the Elections Lounge in the central library.
Voting closes at noon on 11 October 2025 which sounds like ages but it's really not. Time to make some tough decisions and rank those candidates!
