Wentworth
It's one of the most important and influential electorates in the country: Environment Minister Malcolm Turnbull's marginal seat of Wentworth. And we need your help to make a big impact there this election.
It’s not about the politicians, the pundits or the polls. It's about the issues. In a time when climate change is a major issue and leadership is desperately required to invest in a sustainable, prosperous future -- Wentworth residents now have the power to push the The Environment Minister, their local MP, for policies that will change Australia. Our campaign's aim is to ensure Wentworth voters are armed with the facts they need to ask the tough questions and make their vote count. Step Up in WentworthJoin us at major transport hubs in Wentworth to talk to voters about issues that matter. Help us leaflet at Bondi Junction and Edgecliff Stations from 5pm until 7pm. We'll be there every Thursday until the election!Sign Up! Adopt-a-BoothMore than 10% of voters make up their minds at the polling booth.Which issues do you want Wentworth voters to be thinking about as they decide?
This election, remind Wentworth of the important issues when it counts most - by adopting a polling booth near you on election day.
