Hopes for boost to local election voter turnout

If you haven't sent your voting papers off yet, you're not alone.

Figures show just 24 percent of votes have so far been returned in the Auckland region, only 21 percent in Wellington, and 33 percent in Christchurch.

Local Government New Zealand deputy chief executive, Helen Mexted, joined Paul Henry this morning about how can we boost voter turnout.
