The Local Government Minister says central government may review how local body elections are run, following concerns many voters haven't received their papers.

Nanaia Mahuta is one of many voters yet to receive their papers.

Enrolled voters should have received their papers between September 16th and  20th.

Whangārei Mayor Sheryl Mai would love to see a high voter turnout this year, despite the challenges.

She spoke to Corin Dann.
