Who will be Auckland's next mayor?
The campaigning has started and there are 12 contenders - who would have thought? Will it be the mayor we kicked out, will we keep the incumbent or will we go for the porn king who will rule that all women must work topless? I've got a soft spot for Alex Swney - but will that be enough?
The Line Up
I'll be aiming to flesh out a profile of each of these characters but here's the basic list:
- John Banks
- Steve Crow
- John Hinchcliff
- Dick Hubbard
- Phil O'Connor
- Lisa Prager
- Raymond Presland
- Scruff Ralph
- Alex Swney
- Steve Taylor
- Coralie van Camp
- Elaine West

Dick Hubbard
The incumbent
Dick Hubbard had a rough start with Bruce Hucker challenging his authority within days... he failed that test but seems to have done a decent, if not inspiring, job since.He attended a public meeting recently to do with Telecom and broadband and spoke well - even though it's not a council matter.
