Australian Nationals Senator Matt Canavan is sleeping rough in caravan parks across the Farrer electorate (a vast rural seat in southern New South Wales) as part of an unconventional campaign push ahead of a May 9 byelection, despite his party's candidate polling just 7.1% in a recent survey. The race is shaping up as a tight contest between One Nation's David Farley and independent Michelle Milthorpe, with One Nation holding a narrow 52.7–47.3% lead in estimated two-candidate preferred voting. The campaign has drawn national attention, with progressive advocacy group GetUp launching a television and digital advertising campaign linking One Nation to Donald Trump, warning that a One Nation victory in Farrer could reshape Australia's political landscape.
