The local body elec­tions are soon upon us
Well not super soon but it makes your life easy if you are enrolled to vote by Fri­day 16 August 2013, that way you get your vot­ing paper in the mail. You can still enroll after the 16th but then you need to request spe­cial vot­ing papers from your local coun­cil elec­toral offi­cer- what a pain

so go enroll now

Before elec­tion day , which the inter­net tells me is 12 Octo­ber 2013. We want to ask the can­di­dates the big ques­tions, and the not so big ques­tions.

So if you could ask a prospec­tive may­or or city coun­cil­lor any­thing, what would it be?
Post in the com­ments, we’ll add it to our list and come up with a final list of 10 ques­tions we’ll be ask­ing all the can­di­dates.

Here’s what we asked last time round for ref­er­ence

Like last time we’ll print replies ver­ba­tim, cut­ting off answers at 25 words for the sake of brevi­ty in the order they come in.

So what do you want to know? What is going to make you vote for some­one?
