Waikato-Tainui is encouraging its people to get out and vote for the record number of Māori candidates standing for this year's local body elections.
Te Whakakitenga o Waikato Chair Parekawhia McLean says councils dismissed the idea of Māori wards and insisted Māori back themselves in the elections.
Candidates have accepted that challenge, taking real courage and commitment, and she is now urging ratepayers to match that commitment by voting.
