The citizens and residents of New Zealand cast a vote on their believes, based on what the parties have stated and promised for NZ. You vote on a ticket for ONE party and place yoyr ticket in the polling booth and hope for the best. Q4: What do you think would happen if we did not have elections and people did not vote? There could be uprisings and very strong disagreements because our country wouldn't have a choice or say in what happens to them and their future. Q5: Who is the Prime Minister of New Zealand?

Q8: How do you think our government can make New Zealand ‘more awesome’ like the Kid President? I think the government should listen to children more as it is proved children are more creative as preteens-teens and have better ideas and are probabaly more open to listening to others. They are also learning about their future so why should someone else determine it? Q9: What do you think the Prime Minister’s main job is during the day? I think Bill English is always working on something leading up to what we see of him in interviews and his speeches and never really stops being New Zealand's prime minster.
