The “No confidence” vote in local body elections could be as high as 60% by the end of this week, NZ Herald reports. In fact, voter turnout is currently trending lower than 40%, meaning New Zealand could be headed for a record-low voter turnout. It seems that throughout the country there is a similar level of anger and disenchantment with local politicians, which should dispel any rosy idea that lower voter turnout is in some way positive.
