Wellington City Council ElectionsNo outcome is locked in until the last ballot is cast. When individuals choose not to vote, the same dominant voice gets in by default. This election is about our collective future. Do not be discouraged! Take the time to ask questions and research each candidate. Determine who aligns with your values and resonates with you. Most importantly, please exercise your right to vote – our community's future is in our hands.Now the ballot papers are arriving into our letterboxes here's what you NEED to know…First and foremost – You don’t need to rank everyone. If you only want to vote for one candidate just put 1 in the box and you're done.Also please 🙏 IF YOU DONT RATE THEM, DON'T RANK THEM!How do you vote in an STV election?You rank the candidates with numbers. Put a 1 next to the candidate you most want to win, a 2 next to your next favourite, then a 3 for the next person and so on.So I can rank all the candidates? Do I have to?You can rank all the candidates if you want, but that can be a lot of work if there are a lot of candidates. It’s a good idea to rank a few candidates, but if only want to rank one or two faves, that’s OK too – your vote will still be counted.Rank the candidates in order of your preference, 1 – 2 – 3, etc.Vote honestly (there is no need for tricky strategies).You do NOT need to rank all candidates.And remember…IF YOU DON'T RATE THEM, DONT RANK THEM!
