The Herald reports:

Two men have been arrested and charged with forgery over alleged Super City voter fraud.

Detective Inspector Mark Gutry said the men, aged 39 and 36, would appear in the District Court today.

He said the forgery charges were representative and more could follow.

Mr Gutry said police officers had been working closely with the Electoral Enrolment Centre “to ensure a credible and democratic process in the upcoming local body election”.

The investigation was likely to continue for some time and more people could face charges, he said.
