Note: Whakatāne District Council was initially provided with incorrect opening and closing times for Election Day venues. We have updated this page with the correct times. We understand that a number of voters turned up at venues at the originally posted opening time of 8 am and were turned away because voting did not actually open until 9 am. We sincerely apologise for the confusion and inconvenience this caused to anyone affected.
