One concerning thing I've heard people say is: 'Party X always wins this ward, so it doesn't matter if I go vote'
THIS IS WRONG.
Every single vote (ward and PR) gets put into the overal seat % calculation. So EVERY VOTE matters in EVERY WARD. TURN OUT. GO VOTE ON WEDNESDAY!
This account either believes in clickbait or reverse psychology; it can't just be cluelessness about the game.

Test cricket is the greatest format this game has ever had, and Australia touring South Africa is one of the greatest spectacles going.
We need documentaries. We need the hype. We need the discussion, the arguments, the endless talk. More than the Ashes gets. More than the BGT gets. And if not more than those, then this series absolutely deserves to sit in the same bracket.
The contest is simply fairer when Australia come to South Africa. It feels like the cricket, the broadcast, all of it, is on point in a way it isn't everywhere else.
I love it. I love this.
Renshaw returning from a three-year Test exile to score a career-best hundred, followed by a stunning 134-run ninth-wicket partnership.
Australia going from 124-6 to 390.
Markram batting for over 200 balls, displaying extraordinary resolve.
Josh Hazlewood producing a sensational spell to register his career-best Test figures and put Australia 1-0 up.
Boland, playing his first Test in South Africa, ripping through their top three before eventually claiming a five-wicket haul in the second Test.
South Africa showing incredible fight, putting together two century partnerships after losing their sixth wicket for the first time in their history.
Bavuma producing one of the finest Test hundreds you'll ever see. A career-best knock, built on immense tenacity against a relentless pace attack.
South Africa going from 110-6 to 425.
Marco Jansen unleashing a destructive five-wicket haul to bowl Australia out for 99.
Travis Head producing a resolute hundred, with Boland showing extraordinary bravery to face more than 160 balls and keep Australia's hopes alive.
South Africa roaring back to level the series despite losing two days to rain.
South Africa making a strong start in the third Test, only for Starc's sensational six-wicket haul to drag Australia right back into the contest.
Inglis, returning to the Test side after almost a year, smashing a sizzling 132-ball hundred to give Australia the lead and the upper hand.
With just six wickets remaining, South Africa batting through the entirety of Day 4, as Rickelton and Mulder both scoring hundreds to wrestle the advantage back.
Rabada striking twice in the very first over of Day 5. And then Harmer claiming his first ten-wicket haul in a Test to seal a famous series victory for South Africa.
Every Test had drama, going into the fifth day every time. Every Test had its twists and turns. Every Test had a story to tell.
Test cricket, bloody hell, eh?
This is why cricket will always be better than baseball - absolutely impenetrable ways of deciding who may or may not be the best.

Here's hoping the other people at the table were less than diplomatic away from the cameras.
At today’s G20 Foreign Ministers’ Meeting, I made clear that maritime and food security drive economic security.
Through our America First agenda, the United States is encouraging partners to protect shipping routes, strengthen food security, and reduce the economic consequences of geopolitical crises.
