So which one of these jokers are we voting out this week:

Mayoral candidates: Meet the 18 trying to win the Auckland mayoralty | Stuff.co.nz

Tyrone Raumati - Stuff reached out to him on social media to find out his policy stance. But Raumati is yet to respond.

Um sorry bro, you failed at the first hurdle bro, it's a no from me!!

Phil O'Connor A man who has perhaps contested more mayoral elections than any other in the current field, O'Connor is however, and always has been, a difficult man to track down. He never provides public contact details with his mayoral candidacy and issues no policy statements. All we ever know is that he's running on a ticket of Christians Against Abortion.

Umm, sorry Phil it's definitely a no from me!!

John Palino "Our city needs leadership from people who will solve the problems Auckland faces. We need a mayor and a council who put forward real policy solutions to the very real problems facing Aucklanders."
Palino said he's releasing more detailed policies closer to the October 9 postal vote.

Um Mr Palino just 19 days left to get your act together - a big fat NO from me.

This is way easier than I thought.

I'm disappointed mike Hoskin isn't standing
He's full of shit. Would make a perfect mayor

Yes he'd be in good company; reading some of the profiles I don't think I ever saw such a bunch of losers and misfits..

Today in my quest to narrow down the field to Auckland's least biggest loser I had a look at Adam John 'I won't do a single thing' Holland

I kinda like Mr Holland, I think he might be onto something

To have his agenda blog in the same prestigious list as
"If you've ever obeyed an authority figure you are capable of murder"
and
"Try not to move to Somalia"
obviously shows his credentials

I give him 2 thumbs up

And they reckon Boris was a basketcase; I don't feel particularly safe living on the same island as this dude.

speaking for the rest of the country, we like the wall idea

LittleGreyCat

Depends how far out the wall is, of course.

For economic construction the North Wall should use natural features such as rivers, and run coast to coast. Around Mangawhai looks good.

Southern Wall is a bit more of a problem; probably Port Waikato to Miranda.

The wall could be funded by tolls for any traffic between North and South.

Kotare

Sounds like he has a sense of humour - unlike most politicians

Our voting documents arrived on Monday. We are both trying to muster enough enthusiasm to open the envelopes

One advantage to living rurally is you may have met the candidates. We are trying to get our road sealed and the Mayor and two Councillors came to our small village (40 people) meeting - surprise :-)

Easier than trying decipher the electoral handouts which are heavy on 'sustainability', 'diversity,' inclusivity' and' increased spending with lower taxes - oh and few words of Maori to touch all bases. :-)

I see the thread title, I keep thinking it is this

Bo-Jangles

LOL and they'll wonder why nobody bothered to vote - it's too much like hard work with so much dross to sift through.
