Independent candidate for Rumney, Cate Clark, has today thanked her supporters and the electors of Rumney for their interest and assistance during the 2011 Legislative Council election.
“I would sincerely like to say thank you to everyone who has supported me during my election campaign. For all those who have helped me over the course of my campaign I am particularly grateful and would not have been able to have achieved such a successful campaign without your dedication and hard work.
I thank all those Rumney electors who were interested enough to contact me about important issues, to those that opened their doors to me, read my literature and took the time to take part in my online community survey.
Putting your name forward for election to public office can be quite daunting but it is also a privilege. I have greatly enjoyed engaging in a grass roots style of campaign that has enabled me to develop a deep understanding of the needs of the people of Rumney.
I campaigned on the need for a change and am particularly passionate about child protection and cost of living pressures.
Whatever the result today, I hope that the people of Rumney will be the winners as we strive to make our community a better place to work, live and raise a family.
I would also like to take this opportunity to congratulate all other candidates on their campaigns and wish them well for the future. I will certainly be maintaining an ongoing interest in our local community.” Ms Clark said.
