Today is the last day Rotorua electors can post their voting papers for this year's local government elections, with numbers still significantly down on the last three elections.
But, for those who have not yet posted your papers, you won't necessarily miss out.
You can still have your say by dropping your voting papers off at the Rotorua Lakes Council's offices, or the Rotorua District Library, by no later than midday on Saturday.
Preliminary results for the Rotorua Lakes Council, Bay of Plenty Regional Council and Lakes District Health Board elections are expected to be released mid-Saturday afternoon with the final results later in the week.
As at 8pm Monday night 11,440, or 24.75 per cent, of Rotorua's 46,215 eligible voters had returned their voting papers.
