There's an election happening soon! But candidates have been preparing for months in advance. What actually is involved in an election campaign and what is it like from the perspective of a candidate? Well, I sat down with Nathan Barton, an independent candidate backed by the Voices for Moore group, to ask him about his experiences deciding to run, trying to connect with the electorate, how he goes about fundraising, the importance of volunteers and all the fun paperwork he had to get his head around to actually be a candidate.Find who's running in your area at the AEC website and learn more about them before you vote: https://aec.gov.au/election/candidates.htm Support the channel on patreon here: https://www.patreon.com/AuspolExplainedLike Auspol Explained on Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/Auspol-Explained-107892180702388Auspol Explained would like to acknowledge the Whadjuk Nyoongar people and their Elders as the owners and custodians of the Land that the episode was recorded and edited on. This Land was stolen and never ceded. It always was and always will be Aboriginal Land.
