Newcastle election countdown

40 days to go

I have been out and about, door to door, talking to lots of people in Newcastle. And the mood is one of change. Residents are fed up with politicians saying one thing and doing another, sitting on the fence and not talking straight.

The Greens are in with a chance in Newcastle and people are coming forward to help.

Unlike other candidates, who rely on dollars from wealthy contributors or Sydney based party machines, the Newcastle Greens rely on volunteers from our local community. And Newcastle people are responding...

That makes me proud to be a local.
