Section 1: Make use of the Electoral Commission
The Electoral Commission is the organisation that runs New Zealand’s parliamentary elections and keeping the electoral rolls up to date. They are an independent Crown Entity which means we work independently from government.
It’s their job to help all eligible New Zealanders enrol to vote and make sure they know how to vote on the day, so they have a lot of great resources you can make use of.
You can hard copies of enrolment forms and other resources directly from the Electoral Commission website, here: https://elections.nz/getting-involved/order-resources.
These include:
- The official enrolment form (English only)
- The get ready to enrol and vote brochure (English and Māori)
- How to get on the unpublished role brochure (English only)
- Māori electoral role brochure (English and Māori)
- Teaching resources from curriculum levels 2 – 5 (English only)
The Electoral Commission website also has digital materials you can download including factsheets, brochures, social media tiles, and teaching resources. Check out the digital resources here: https://elections.nz/getting-involved/download-resources
