QLDC - voting returns
Postal voting is well underway in the Queenstown Lakes District elections, with more people voting early than at the comparable stage three years ago.
Figures from Electionz.com, the independent company conducting the QLDC elections, show that so far 9.98 percent of votes have been returned – a total of 2,110 votes.
At the same stage in the 2013 elections, six percent of votes had been returned.
The full spreadsheet of returns is online and will be updated daily: http://electionz.com/2016lgereturns/ELT70QL16_returns.htm
The election for Mayor, Council and Wanaka Community Board is being held by postal vote. Votes are processed as they are received by Electionz.com but not counted. The election closes at midday on Saturday 8 October so votes should be posted by Wednesday 5 October to ensure they are received in time to be counted.
