abc.net.au/news/nsw-election-march-2023-jacqui-scruby-running-pittwater-seat/101758796One of the team members behind federal "teal" independent MP Sophie Scamps is now running in the same area on the Northern Beaches for the state election.The Liberals have held the seat for almost all of its 50-year historyJacqui Scruby has announced she will be the independent candidate for the seat of Pittwater, and has the backing of the Climate 200 group.
The federal seat of Mackellar, which overlaps with Pittwater, was also a very safe Liberal seat until the May federal election when Ms Scamps was successful with an almost 16 per cent swing away from the Liberals. Ms Scruby says the same issues that captured voters in the area in May will apply at the state election in March, referencing the federal teal platform of "climate, integrity and gender equality"."I think the community is awake and engaged enough to realise that this New South Wales election really is one that counts."
