Kudos to Kim O’Keeffe, state member for Shepparton, for her announcement of support of “Yes” as a response to the referendum question. Her statement is in this morning’s Shepp News. #auspol#VoteYes
The regional seats of Hinkler in Queensland and Nicholls in Victoria were both considered very safe Coalition seats.
That was until Independent candidates threw their hat in the ring and blew the competition wide open.

@TomBurkeDarwin@RonniSalt@slsandpet If @bertpriestly doesn't support cashless welfare (been suggested does) he'll probably win Nicholls - cashless welfare costs Lab/Grn votes needed to win. Haines easily holds. Page to be a late 🔥 seat. Mallee in play. Only 2 definite LNP losses for me - Curtin and Goldstein.
Ok, so I took a long break from writing because I just couldn't write any more.
I was a bit broken.
Here's me - back in the saddle again with a look at the women independents who may help bring the Morrison govt down
It feels good to be writing again.

@Bazamba As an independent I will vote on behalf of our community, in our community's best interests, not a party. I am focused on good policy backed by quality research. Whoever forms government, I will work with to deliver good policy.
@bertpriestly so Rob, when you win Nicholls, with a 20% swing, will Albo need you to form minority government? Or, as he’s won in a landslide, will he come knocking? Nicholls will again be irrelevant, no?
@robphair@robphair policy detail will be released after @voices4nicholls conclude kitchen table conversations report.
I am committed to action on climate change, water policy reform, strong ICAC, & policy that supports inclusivity,social mobility and opportunity for regional communities.
Thanks to Damian Drum MP for his service to the electorate during what has been a challenging time for everyone. Wishing him all the best in his retirement.
Independent candidate for the federal seat of Nicholls Rob Priestly has told his first campaign gathering he’s “in it to win it”. More than 100 people, many signed up as volunteers, gathered for what amounted to a campaign launch on Monday. @bertpriestlysheppnews.com.au/news/2021/11/2…
We are desperately waiting to know if Shepparton is coming out of lockdown tomorrow. Our business owners, all of us,need to make plans for the week ahead. @VictorianCHO
