Elections 2007 Timetable
How to Vote
Providing you are on the Rolls (see section on “Electoral Rolls and Enrolment”), you will be sent voting papers between 21 and 26 September 2007.
With the voting papers are instructions on how to cast your vote. You will have up to three weeks to decide who you will vote for. Voting closes at noon on Saturday 13 October.
In the envelope, with your voting papers, will be a booklet that contains a profile of each candidate in the elections as provided by them. This is designed to assist electors be as knowledgeable as possible about each candidate. There may also be a photograph of the candidate included with the profile.
Some candidates may not provide a profile. In this case, you will see under their name the words “Profile not provided” If candidates do not provide a photo, the words ‘No photo supplied’ will be displayed.
If for any reason you do not receive voting papers by 26 September 2007, and consider you are entitled to vote, you should ring the Electoral Officer for assistance and to arrange a Special Vote. You can contact the Electoral Officer on (04) 296 4700 or (06) 364 9301 (Otaki tollfree) or e-mail Kapiti.Council@kapiticoast.govt.nz
