A living wage is important to my real life, and I would have liked to have been able to read what candidates' positions were on such matters.

Apart from candidates' own social media efforts, Living Wage Aotearoa New Zealand did a pretty good job of keeping up with where many main centre candidates stood on that issue. Even Kiwiblog appeared to have its uses. Newly elected Lambton Ward Councillor Brian Dawson, bottom ranked by David Farrar, is now City Ambassador for the Living Wage.
