One Nation’s NSW leader Mark Latham says the party will run in at least 20 seats – and has its sights set on one area of the state in particular.
One Nation’s NSW leader Mark Latham says the party will run in at least 20 seats in the March 25 election, more than twice the number it contested in 2019 as it aims to capitalise on voters deserting major parties.
“What you can see from published polling is that the combined votes for major parties is trending down,” Latham said. “We saw Anthony Albanese scrape into government with a primary of just 32 per cent yet once parties had to be on at least 40 per cent to win.”showed Labor is on track to return to government
It has struck a deal with the Shooters, Fishers and Farmers to not contest the same seats, which means One Nation will not run in the bush, including in the Nationals’ ultra-marginal seat of Upper Hunter which is on just 0.5 per cent. The move will see Latham elected for another eight years, with his spot – which still has four years to run – to be filled as a casual vacancy once parliament returns after the election. The party has determined that assuming Latham is reelected, the candidate on the One Nation upper house ticket to miss out of on securing a spot will take his casual vacancy.
