LAST CHANCE TO VOTE IN SUPERCITY REFERENDUM

PRESS RELEASE - OUR AUCKLAND
For immediate release – Thursday 13 May 2010


Voting closes at 5pm on Friday 14 May in the Super City “People’s Referendum” run by the coalition group Our Auckland.

If you haven’t yet voted it’s not too late to have your say on the shape of the future Auckland that you want.

Our Auckland spokesperson Mels Barton says the campaign has gone well so far. “We’ve had great feedback from all over the Region with people calling and emailing to say thanks for doing this and giving us a voice.”

“We want everyone to participate and tell the Government what kind of Auckland they want – a democratic or a corporate city – it’s our Auckland and our future at stake here. So vote now and make sure your family and friends vote too.”

You can vote online at www.ourauckland.org.nz or at a ballot box. These are located in every library in the Region (other than Franklin where the libraries are not Council-run).

Anyone wishing to help the campaign should contact the team on ourauckland@gmail.com or call the hotline on 021 210 1711.

The results will be published in The Aucklander on Thursday 20 May.
