The community decides
Together for Riverina called for nominations for a community independent candidate to stand for the Riverina electorate in the 2025 Federal Election.
Potential candidates presented themselves at an online webinar watched by over 200 people. Community feedback on the candidates led to Together for Riverina endorsing Jenny Rolfe. Jenny will now be responsible for running and funding her own campaign.
As we fast approach the next federal election, trust in the democratic process is at an all-time low. Together for Riverina aims to reignite that trust by fostering inclusive democratic engagement, and making politics accessible to all. Through community input and public forums, we want to remind the people of Riverina electorate - “you decide.”
