Time to enrol


The video above is the latest ad from the NZ Electoral Commission reminding New Zealanders to enrol by August 23—a little over two weeks from now. It’s good to remind people.

And reminding Kiwis to register to vote—or to make sure they’re registered of they think they are—is why I’m sharing the ad here, and why I shared the Facebook version there, too. The other reason I’m sharing it, though, is because people overseas may be interested to see how elections are promoted in New Zealand.

When the TV ads for the parties start, I’ll share them, too.

I'm mostly interested how you Kiwis spell "enroll"

When I moved to New Zealand 20 years ago, I made a decision to do a "cold turkey" switch to NZ spelling (and the metric system). I've blogged about that. But even now, after more than two decades, every once in a while I have to double-check. That's the curse of being bilingial when both languages are English. More or less.
