Dear friends.

We have come to the end of another campaign, tonight we put forward our final arguments on Australia Tonight in the debate, it's hard to tell how it went but the initial feedback is strong.

People continue to hear the message we are putting out, that our work is not yet done. That together we can continue to ensure that Nicholls not only has a strong voice in parliament but continues to push to make things better for rural Australians all across the nation.

As you may have heard during the debate, if elected I will be pushing the government which ever is elected or if they need us for supply to provide funding for the duplication of the South Gippsland Highway between Cranbourne and Korumburra, this is one of Australia's fastest growing corridors and we need both the rail and the road infrastructure to ensure that people can get to work and school without spending hours stuck in traffic queues or having to leave home at 5 in the morning because what should be an hour long journey takes 3..

It has been a long campaign, a strong campaign, a tough campaign given the circumstances we are all living through. But we can not lose sight of the reason why we are fighting this campaign. To ensure our farmers are protected, to ensure the rail infrastructure upgrades are built. To ensure the passenger corridor to Mildura by rail reopens. To ensure people who lost everything in East Gippsland have their infrastructure rebuilt to allow people to visit there once this pandemic crisis passes.

And so now, we turn to you. I have laid out my plan for the past week on what we still hope to achieve, for the past two terms you have put your trust in me as your member, I ask for your trust again, so we continue to ensure a brighter future for everyone in Nicholls and ensure our voice continues to be heard.
