Subject: [EXTERNAL] Official Information request - Detailed Election
Results

 

Dear Porirua City Council,

I am looking for good declarations of results for your recent local
elections.
Your election results are pretty vague and are not up to scratch. I am
looking for more detailed results and this is important because you use
STV not FPTP.

An example of the types of documents I am looking for would be like these
examples:

WCC Declaration of results 2022:
[3]https://wellington.govt.nz/-/media/your-...
WCC Declaration of results 2019:
[4]https://wellington.govt.nz/-/media/your-...

You did release results up to this level of quality in 2016:
[5]https://storage.googleapis.com/pcc-wagta...

That being said, it appears the council or the electoral officer have
failed to produce official results to the public with this level of
quality for the 2019 and 2022 elections. You did publish this though:
[6]https://storage.googleapis.com/pcc-wagta...
This document does not seem to meet the requirements laid out by section
106 of the Local Electoral Regulations 2001. There also seems to be no
document released for the 2019 Election.

Please supply the following information:
Porirua City Council's 2022 Triennial Elections Declaration of Result
Porirua City Council's 2019 Triennial Elections Declaration of Result

Yours faithfully,
Will Hall
