Council elections are this Saturday, do you know who is running for Council in your area?

Have you seen the corflute posters on the telegraph polls? Perhaps you were accosted by the candidates on your morning commute.

You may not know who they are but they do play an important role in democracy, this morning we spoke with Edwina Deakin, Senior Manager at The Institute of Public Policy & Governance at UTS (University of Technology Sydney).
