any other year id agree re nats on ballarat. incumbent in bendigo i thought was popular, who had an. 11.5% lead from last election. nats didnt run in bendigo in 22, and they expanded boundaries this year so there must have been enough for them to think they had a chance.
not wrong tho re skews right

The nats hang on in their rural areas with their rusted on voters. I’d be surprised if their brand of party were able to translate that into any city seats.
They really throuhg everything and the kitchen sink at bendigo. The twin sister in my mind has always been Ballarat. they had no issues retaining labor, and i suspect without the incredible effort dumped on bendigo the nats candidate would have struggled to get ahead.
