At pre-poll there are at least five different front groups running on the ground attacks on independent MPs and candidates. These groups are well resourced with billboards, posters, and paid staff handing out flyers to undecided voters.
It also looks like the Liberal Party could easily outspend independents online in these crucial final days.
Every dollar donated to this fighting fund will go directly to:
• Supercharging independents' digital advertising budgets, allowing them to stay neck and neck with the Liberals.
• An urgent scale up of polling booth materials like signage, flyers, and how-to-vote cards — helping them cut through the attacks and get their message across to voters,
Right now, this fighting fund is ~$230k short of what is needed. To help close that gap as quickly as possible a small group of generous donors are offering to QUADRUPLE all donations. That means for every $100 you donate, $400 will go directly towards helping independents fight through these attacks.
We are very excited to support Climate 200 and strongly agree with their goals for action on climate, integrity, and diversity. After meeting the team at Climate 200, we know that they will make sure that every dollar donated is well-targeted and will make a real difference in getting more independent voices into Parliament.
We are proud to support Climate 200 in its mission to support local communities and their independent candidates fighting for action on climate change, equality and integrity. We need our political representation to respond to the concerns of its citizens. We know we are better together and hope you join us in this push for a safe climate and fairer future for all.
We’re frustrated and embarrassed with the lack of meaningful action at the federal level in Australia to address the Climate Emergency. We strongly feel there is a need for more people in the federal government that have the integrity and the independence to act in the interests of future generations. Please join us in supporting the work being done by Climate 200 at this pivotal point.
