Tony Piccolo, sitting MLA for Light since 2006, to run in Ngadjuri in 2026:

Feels like SA Labor is jumping the gun a little bit. Just because the electorate’s much more marginal than last election doesn’t necessarily mean Labor’s going to win it. And Piccolo’s vote base is mostly in Gawler which is in Light and they risk losing that seat too if they move Piccolo to a newer, less friendly electorate.
Agree Tommo, although I think Light is safe even without Piccolos personal vote. The seat is now solely Gawler whereas in previous elections (especially in 2006 when Piccolo won it for the first time) it contained some surrounding rural areas.
The margin is currently over 10% and considered a safe seat unlike previous elections where it was marginal.
