What next?

You’ve looked at the stats for your electorate and you want to know what to do next? You might get in touch with an electorate group that already exists, or help start one, or consider how else you can have the most impact.

First, remember that your local knowledge is key – an electorate that looks good on paper may be harder to win because your duopoly MP is actually popular, or is actually trying to represent you. Speak with others in your community to decide the best course of action. If there’s already a community group (you’ll see a link when you click on the map) get in touch.

Let’s say your electorate is categorised highly (1-3) and you want to make change. The Community Independents Project Toolkit is a great place to start. You can build a movement for change in your community, with lots of other benefits along the way – find hope through action and get connected with lots of other great people.

What if your electorate is more marginal (4-5)? Again, local knowledge is important, but also consider if you can get involved in a group in your neighbouring electorate. There are still benefits in getting involved in your area, and there may be opportunities at state or local government levels.

Win Numbers

Your electorate group will want to understand your win numbers – what primary vote will your candidate need and where does that vote need to come from? We can assist in modelling this, so please get in touch through the form below.
