Momentum for Change in Fisher

As we wrap up this campaign, I want to take a moment to say thank you — from the bottom of my heart.

Together, we’ve shifted the political landscape in Fisher. We’ve shown that when the community comes first, remarkable things can happen.

= Over 200 incredible volunteers gave their time, energy, and heart.
= Over 215 generous individual donors and 33,000 donors through Climate 200 backed this people-powered campaign.
= Thousands of voters sent a clear message: we want a different kind of politics.

This was a people-powered campaign built by those who believe we can do better — and thousands of voters sent a clear message: we want a different kind of politics.

The count is still underway, and we won’t know my final position — including whether I finish second or third — until after postal votes close and preferences are distributed on Friday 16 May.

I have called and congratulated Andrew Wallace and wished him all the best for the term ahead.

Reflecting on the result, I want to acknowledge something important:

“Thousands of people here — and across the country — have voted for a different kind of politics. The fear, division and spin of the old playbook is wearing thin. Voters are asking for something better.”

Even though it looks like we may not have won the seat, we’ve achieved something extraordinary:

= We’ve made a so-called safe seat competitive.
= We’ve built a powerful movement for change.
= We’ve laid the foundations for lasting, community-led politics in Fisher.

To every volunteer, supporter, donor, neighbour, and voter — thank you. You’ve made this campaign something truly special.

And I couldn’t be more proud of what we’ve built together.

Thank You,

Keryn.
