Māori voters should have received an information pack in the mail by now about their roll choice for this year’s election.

Packs have been sent to 562,000 voters of Māori descent on the general roll and the Māori roll.

“The pack includes a letter confirming which roll you are currently on,” says chief electoral officer Karl Le Quesne.

“If you’re happy with the roll you’re on, you don’t need to do anything. If you’d like to change the roll you’re on, sign and date the letter in the pack and send it back or go online to vote.nz to make the change.

“If you’re Māori and haven’t received a pack, it means we have an old address for you, or you’re not enrolled,” said Mr Le Quesne.

“You can enrol, update your address, or change rolls at vote.nz, or by filling in an enrolment form.”

Māori voters who would like to switch rolls before the November 7 General Election need to make the change before midnight Thursday, August 6.

Visit vote.nz for more information or call 0800 36 76 56 to ask for an enrolment form to be sent to you.
