A by-election is being held in the seat of Aoraki following the resignation of its MP, /u/purplewave_.
The timeline for the election is as follows:
20 August 2021: Nominations open
22 August 2021, 11:59PM: Nominations close
24 August 2021, midnight: Campaigning begins
27 August 2021, 11:59PM: Campaigning ends
28 August 2021: Polling day
TBD: Results
Candidates may stand on behalf of a party by being nominated by their leader, or may stand as independents by nominating themselves. Candidates nominated after the deadline may receive electoral penalties, and acceptance of the nomination is at the sole discretion of the Electoral Commission. No nominations will be accepted after campaigning begins. Candidate submission will be via a google form, which will provided when candidate submission opens.
All campaigning will take place on the r/ModelNZCampaigning subreddit. Posts outside of that subreddit will not count towards the calculation of the final score. Not even a little bit.
Post limits: Candidates may make four posts in total. These posts may be made on any day during the campaign. Leaders of parties who are not standing a candidate may make one post endorsing a candidate.
Post tags: The titles of campaign posts should start with
#Aoraki21
For example, a campaign event would be titled
#Aoraki21 Aya rants about urbanites to some sheep in Dipton
If a post doesn't begin with this tag, it will still be counted, it's mostly for searching later. But you'll make us sad, and that may affect your mods.
The boundaries for the electorate may be found on this Google Map. As you have this resource available to you, penalties will apply for campaigning outside of the electorate.
