Ten Questions

We’ve sent the following ten questions to candidates standing for election in the General Election. As answers come in we’ll publish them here.

>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>

As you are running as a candidate in an electorate that includes Raglan Whaingaroa or you are a list candidate based close by, we would like you to answer ten questions for us. You get 30 words per answer, and we’ll only publish the first 30 words you send us.

We’ll also be publishing answers exactly as you write them, so make sure you get someone to check them before you hit the send button. Please email your answers to info@raglan.gen.nz including what electorate you’re running in and where you live. We’ll publish responses in the order that we receive them from candidates.

1. Who are you and what do you want?
2. You have 30 seconds to convince someone to come to Raglan Whaingaroa. What’s your pitch?
3. When did you last use the Raglan library, or a local community or sports facility west of the divvy in Whaingaroa?
4. Would you welcome a central government driven “super-city” amalgamation of local authorities in the Waikato?
5. What achievement for Raglan are you most proud of?
6. How can we make Raglan even more environmentally friendly?
7. If you don’t live here what will you do to ensure you represent the area?
