Mayor and councillor by-election
All those enrolled to vote in this month’s election for a Hastings mayor and councillor will receive voting papers in their letterboxes later this week or early next week (papers are posted out on November 2) . Everyone in the Hastings district will get voting papers for the mayoral by-election, while those in the Havelock North/Hastings ward will also get to vote in the councillor by-election. If your enrolment is not up to date or you are not yet enrolled, you can lodge a special vote from November 2 by coming into the council offices on Lyndon in person, or by contacting the Electoral Officer on 06 871 5018.
