WA Election Campaign Report back

Last week Fair Agenda members helped drive two campaigns in the lead up to the WA Senate election - we're excited to report back on your impact! 

1) Sports Party candidate questioned on inappropriate facebook content

After more than 450 Fair Agenda members took action in our Sports Party campaign, the story got picked up by 6 different news outlets, including: the ABC, Daily Life and Triple J news.

Then, lead candidate Wayne Dropulich was asked in an interview with Radio National to explain why he thought that their actions were appropriate. You can hear the highlights from that interview in this recording, from 16:00.

 

2) 'Where do the parties stand?' scorecard shared with 2,000 people before the election

Off the back of the Sports Party’s facebook post, Fair Agenda asked representatives from the parties running in the WA election to declare their positions on the key issues that matter most to Fair Agenda members. We asked where they'd stand on specific questions we expect the new Senate will be required to vote on.

Thanks to pressure from Fair Agenda members, we were able to secure responses from 9 of the candidates.

We presented their responses in a scorecard that was shared with more than 2,000 people on Facebook. You can see the scorecard, and the parties’ extended responses, here.
