Presidential election uncontested

Multiple unofficial, but reliable, sources tell the Voice that Simon Hughes will not face an election for the post of Party President.

PS This time I am assured the Voice is right, unlike the other time. I really am right this time. 100%. There’s a press release coming, and everything.

UPDATE: The party’s official announcement is here.

For other elections (Federal Executive, FCC etc) the timetable now is as follows:

  • The final opportunity for candidates to withdraw their nomination has passed
  • The final opportunity for candidates to submit manifesto artwork has passed
  • Ballot papers will be sent out on 16 October
  • They should be returned by 3 November
  • The results will be announced on 6 November
