While the federal election is now over, the two biggest state elections in Australia are just around the corner: Victoria in November, and New South Wales in March 2023.
I released my Victorian election guide at the start of the year, but I have now finished compiling my New South Wales election guide.
Most of each of these guides is currently accessible only to those who donate $5 or more per month via Patreon, but there are some freebies available.
For New South Wales, the four free seats are:
- East Hills – the Coalition’s most marginal seat, but a seat that barely shifted in 2015 and 2019.
- Leppington – a new seat drawn in south-west Sydney with a slim notional Labor margin, but in an area expecting a large amount of population growth in the near future.
- Parramatta – my local seat, a Liberal seat held by a slightly wider margin, but the seat was significantly redrawn to lose some of the Liberal Party’s best areas, reducing the margin from 10.6% to 6.3%.
- South Coast – as an example of safer Liberal seats that could potentially be in play, the sitting member here is retiring with a margin of 10.6%. It will probably stay in Liberal hands, but it could be interesting.
For now, I haven’t bothered to fill in the candidate section, but I will do that later this year Next up, I’ll be updating my Victorian guides with as many candidates as I can identify.
Will be interesting to see if the Nationals drop more seats in NSW
