Federal Election 2010: Online candidates forum for the electorate of Farrer

This page archives a series of podcast interviews I conducted with each of the candidates for the seat of Farrer in leadup to the 2010 federal election, during the first two weeks of the election campaign. At the time I was based at the La Trobe University campus in Albury-Wodonga as Lecturer in Politics and International Relations.

Each of the candidates are good people who have made a strong contribution to their local communities. The candidates were asked a set of similar questions on local issues, the state of political debate in Australia, climate change, the economy, and border security. This framework therefore gives you a basis to directly compare philosophical positions and policy proposals of each candidate and the party they represent.

Candidates are listed in alphabetical order. I was not able to obtain interviews with every candidate for the seat.

Select here for a breakdown of the results from the 2010 federal election published by the Australian Electoral Commission.
