Disqualified once, Rod Culleton referred to police over 'false declaration' for Senate | CroweDM
"However, given Mr Culleton’s prior disqualification by the High Court, the AEC has referred Mr Culleton’s candidate nomination form to the Australian Federal Police to examine if a false declaration has been made under provisions of the Criminal Code Act 1995, relating to his status as an undischarged bankrupt."
"A search of the National Personal Insolvency Index indicates that Mr Culleton is currently listed as an undischarged bankrupt," the commission said. The random draws for the House of Representatives helped a series of prominent Liberal MPs including Tony Abbott, Peter Dutton, Greg Hunt and Michael Sukkar by putting them all ahead of independent or Labor challengers in their lower house races.
The Victorian ballot paper has the Liberal Party in first position, with the United Australia Party in sixth, Derryn Hinch and his party in ninth, Pauline Hanson’s One Nation in 17th, the Greens in 22nd and Labor in 24th.
