FYI: I sent this to Trevor Mallard, the MP for Hutt South - "Re the Hutt News article on your views about the proposed Petone stadium. How many letters did you actually leave in boxes? Is it the THOUSANDS you claim in your article? A return of 200 from 'thousands' is hardly hard data is it? What about doing a REAL survey?"
Trevor Mallard replied "One into letterbox for each Petone ( not Alicetown or Korokoro) household that had someone on electoral roll. Those who cared returned forms."
