YOUR VOTE REALLY DOES MATTER.
The voting papers have now been posted out to you (if you are enrolled to vote). You have until 12 noon on Election Day 12 October 2019 to cast your vote.
This is what you do - select the candidates you wish to vote for on your voting papers, seal your pre-paid envelope and put your completed voting papers in a post box on or before 8 October 2019 to ensure they arrive by midday on 12 October. You can also drop your voting papers into one of the ballot boxes in at Council’s Customer Services desk or at the Nelson or Stoke library up to midday on Saturday 12 October.
IF YOU HAVEN’T ENROLLED YET?
Don’t worry, it isn’t too late!
You won’t get your voting papers sent to you in the mail, but you can request special voting papers from Nelson City Council’s Electoral Officer at elections@ncc.govt.nz or go in & see the friendly people at the Council’s Customer Service desk & they will help you.
IF YOU NEED TO CHANGE YOUR DETAILS ON THE ELECTORAL ROLL?
Any changes to the residential roll, such as name or address, can be made directly by telephoning 0800 ENROL NOW (0800 367 656) or by going on to the Electoral Commission website, elections.org.nz. You can also pick up a form at a NZ Post Shop, the Nelson Public Libraries or the Customer Service Centre at Nelson City Council.
Our democracy is precious.
