Aaah yeah its called electoral fraud. Quite illegal unless you are in the State of Florida of course & your brother is the governor!

Electoral Fraud - its just recycling isn't it. I am sure the Greens would be happy if we did it if it kept them out of landfill.

Please explain why I should waste my time efforts and thoughts on this nonsence vote.
Apart from the redicolous timing

No more ridiculous than your spelling

of the referedum and the fact that the outcome is absolutely meaningless

No, it shows everybody what a specific number of people think. Politicians are very keen on dressing up views that support their own agendas as "what NZers think" so this gives everyone a reference point. Sure, turnout may not be high, but it's still a barometer.

I really do not have a strong enough opinion one way or the other.

So if you really cannot make up your mind then don't bother voting. Seems like if there's nothing in it for you, then you sit on your hands so why would this be any different?

My wife and myself will be chucking ours straight in the rubbish bin where they belong we have been shafted enough over MRP and CNU by this Govt not to have any interest in this referendum

This makes no sense at all to the hog.

[warthog]

Now couta1 one must remember that the government did not force you to buy any shares.

Behold, snapiti makes sense!

But I do agree the referedum papers belong in the rubbish bin.

Spoke too soon. Reversion to nonsense

[warthog]

I just had a thought... although its probably illegal... you could pick up all the voting papers that people are "binning" and have some extra votes as its a postal vote and not a ballot one

Yes illegal but who could tell?

[warthog]

That would cause serious damage to the NZ economy. Winston's option is unthinkable
.

And he knows it.

Perfect promise for a politician to make: one that everyone contends he should not keep.

Everyone would be happy if rubbish is kept out of landfill.

you must be a very bored warthog if you have nothing better to do with your time than fill out paper work to support some meaningless polictical agenda's

The hog has, how would one say, an outlying early leisurely life.

Actually, it takes about 2 seconds to tick a box and put the paper in the envelope.

And let's face it: doesn't matter how well you are in life, a short walk to the postbox will always do you good!

lol, just remember whose 'meaningless political agenda' forced this non binding referendum in the face of a mandate given at the last election

hence, I will be ticking the YES box.

Its not often that I put pen to paper..but I couldnt stand seeing the Greens/Labour on TV telling us that they were right.....so a tick in the right box & into the post pronto before I forget
