Election Criteria
General election time again. Boundary changes mean I am no longer in the interesting Ohariu electorate, but rather the boring Hutt South area.
In previous elections I have used mailbox etiquette to influence my vote. So far this year, the material I have received has been personally addressed so I can't criticise them for ignoring my "no circulars" sign this time round.
But one of the letters wasn't addressed to my name although it did have my address. So is one of the parties so incompetent that they can't even organise a bulk mailout correctly? We may have a decision criterion.
On the other hand, the dude the envelope was addressed to may have just screwed up his electoral roll entry. I'll give the party the benefit of the doubt until I can check.
In the meantime I may have to (shock horror) look at actual party policies.
