Libs pick candidates to turn Coast blue

With a Federal election on the cards in the first months of 2025 the Liberal Party has named its Candidates for the Seats of Robertson and Dobell.

Former Member for Robertson Lucy Wicks will contest the seat which she lost to Labor in the 2022 election that ousted the Morrison Government. She had held the seat since the 2013 election.

Robertson, considered a bellweather seat, is presently held by Labor with a 2.2% margin.

Ms Wicks was instrumental in getting the University of Newcastle Central Coast Clinical School and Research Institute in Gosford and subsequently secured funding for UON’s new Gosford Campus.
