How to take part

  • Answer a statement by clicking Agree, Disagree or Pass/Unsure. The next statement will automatically appear.
  • If you can’t bring yourself to categorically agree or disagree with a statement, the challenge is to write and submit a ‘better’ one!
  • To add a statement, fill out the Share your perspective box and click submit.
  • Click on Opinion Groups or the Majority Opinion button to explore areas of agreement and difference.
  • Come back every few days to vote on new statements, review opinion as it is emerging and to add new statements for others to consider.
  • You don’t need to ‘vote’ on all the statements at one time – Pol.is will only present you with statements you haven’t considered.
  • More detailed instructions are available here.
  • Email ccl-transport@auckland.ac.nz if you have any concerns or need help.

Statements and moderation

  • Statements should be about a standalone idea that improves existing statements, or presents new perspectives, experiences, issues, or proposals. Statements can be a maximum of 140 characters, so be concise. 
  • You cannot reply directly to a statement, but you can add a statement that relates to a previous idea. Your added statement will appear randomly in the mix.
  • Statements should not include multiple ideas, but you can submit more than one.
  • Statements must be on topic, clear and should not name people, be offensive or be duplicates of other published statements. 
  • The moderation team will aim to accept or decline submitted statements within 72 hours.

Voters, votes and statements are anonymous

  • Neither participants nor the moderators can see who has submitted a statement or how any individual has voted.
  • The reports that Pol.is generates do not identify anyone.
  • Participants must register and sign in to take part in the Pol.is.
  • No participants will be identified in any analysis or reports.
