This election we don’t need to vote out of fear, we can look after our families, our neighbours and our communities best when we vote with our values. When we vote for candidates who bring us together and leave no one behind.

Over the past 5 weeks, the @asrc1 has been encouraging people to #votewithrefugees. We have hosted 5 forums with 13 candidates (ZERO Liberals), 7 days of pre poll across numerous booths & handed out thousands of scorecards. People are demanding compassion, & rejecting cruelty.
