This month Good Local Media launches its Local Choice campaign for the local body elections in Waikato Business News and our community newspapers in Cambridge, Te Awamutu and King Country. We’ve got six months to get the right candidates and then encourage people to get out and vote.
- 1 July – Candidate nominations open and roll opens for public inspection
- 1 August 12 noon – Candidate nominations close and roll closes
- 6 August – Public notice of candidates’ names
- 9-22 September – Voting documents delivered
- 7 October – Last day for posting vote by mail. After this date votes must be returned to council’s secure ballot boxes.
- 11 October at 12 noon – Election day: voting closes midday, preliminary results after that.
