"I do a lot of presentations to councils around social media issues. People need to be aware of their social media presence and think about where those links go and understand the implications of that and what their presence is and bear that in mind when they are campaigning."
"There are protocols in place for maintaining a level playing field for candidates so candidates can't link to council's social media channels for example because the moment you do that you are using a council resource"
"Under the protocols you can't use a council resource, logo or branding in candidates' campaigning material. That's all about having a level playing field between all of the candidates."
Mr Lampp said there were some good points about social media too.
"There are lots of opportunities on social media to find out about the candidates and use social media to raise awareness about the process. Local Government NZ and Rotorua Lakes Council are using social media extensively to profile council elections in that demographic who don't generally vote in order to get them to vote."
It isvery busy time for Mr Lampp and his team at Christchurch-based Electionz.com
"I'm probably doing a good 10-12 hours a day at the moment, it's about keeping your balance and I take that into account. I've got a good team in place."
Electionz.com will employ 90 extra people during the voting period to process more than 600,000 voting papers at its centralised processing centre in Christchurch close to both the airport and New Zealand Post's processing centre.
Nominations for candidates for Rotorua Lakes Council, Lakes and Rural community boards and Lakes District Health Board opened on July 15 and close on August 12.
Voting papers will be sent out from September 16 and must be received by the electoral officer by noon on Election Day, 8 October 2016.
Mr Lampp estimates he should have a progress result for Rotorua Lakes Council ready by 2pm. Lakes DHB could take longer because it runs under a single transferable vote system which requires a lot more work.
His team won't be finished until about midnight on the Saturday and then will be back on the Sunday to ensure all the voting papers get processed and reconciled.
