Central Coast New Independents’ candidate for Wyong Ward, Ms Louise Greenaway, said she believed many voters remained confused about which Ward they should vote in on September 9.
Ms Greenaway said she urged voters to check which ward they are enrolled in before the election.
“After Gosford and Wyong councils were merged, the Central Coast was divided into five new wards for voting,” Ms Greenaway said.
“Many people will find themselves in a Ward they were not expecting to be in,” she said.
“Most people are dumbfounded when they learn that North Gosford, Narara, Niagara Park, Wyoming and Lisarow are in Wyong Ward.
“Wyong Ward is huge and includes Watanobbi and Warnervale.
“Another point of confusion is that parts of the suburb of East Gosford are actually in Gosford West ward.
“Voters are advised to allow extra time to vote due to the confusion that is anticipated at the booths.
“To find out which ward you are in, and who the candidates are, go to vote.nsw.info or ring 1300 135 736,” she said.
