The third-term city councillor is hoping to unseat Wayne Guppy, who was first elected mayor in 2001.
Upper Hutt has only had two mayors since 1977 – Rex Kirton and Guppy – and there only has been one female mayor – Doris Nicholson – from 1971 to 1977.
McLeod is campaigning on the need for change, after being the highest polling council candidate and narrowly missing out on the mayoralty in 2019.

I am a very gorgeous, loveable and confident old girl. I am nicknamed Silent Bob, as I don't meow often. I am currently in foster care with my amazing foster mum and here's what she has to say about me; "Bobbi is a lovely healthy cat with energy and spirit that belies her age and circumstances. She shows a mix of confidence and caution, possibly the result of developing independence at an early age. She is wonderful company without being needy and she eats and drinks well and is fully house trained. She loves to be around, either sitting on my lap or the end of my chair and immediately follows me to bed at night. Although Bobbi is a lap cat, she's not a cuddly cat and likes only a little patting, preferably around head and face. She does also have some indemnities her new family will need to be made aware of, but we can chat about this when you meet her “
