Comment:
At the 2019 election, the Coalition won 2.70 quotas, while Labor won 2.09 quotas. It therefore seems almost certain that the Coalition
will win three seats and Labor two seats, a loss for Labor. The Greens polled 0.61 quotas, which was enough get
Mehreen Faruqi elected, so it seems likely that the sixth seat will go to the Greens. Labor had three sitting Senators, and one of them seemed
certain to lose. The Left's Jenny McAllister was guaranteed the second spot on the ticket, so this left the Right's Kristina Keneally and Deb O'Neill to
contend for the first spot. In September 2021 Keneally announced that she would stand for a House of Representatives seat. Labor's third candidate is
Dr Shireen Morris, a constitutional lawyer, who stood for Deakin (Vic) in 2019.
On the Coalition side, Foreign Minister Marise Payne will head the ticket, and the Nationals' former state party director Ross Cadell will take second spot,
reclaiming the seat the Nats lost when Fiona Nash was forced to resign over the citizenship issue. In March, Senator Jim Molan, who is 71, defeated former
minister Senator Concetta Fierravanti-Wells for the vulnerable third position, following which Fierravanti-Wells announced her retirement.
The lead Greens candidate is sitting MLC David Shoebridge.
