McGowan worked for Liberal MP Ewen Cameron in the 1970s. Just like any other article on a politician, previous political allegiances should be presented. — Preceding unsigned comment added by SFCTID (talk • contribs) 09:07, 18 September 2013 (UTC)[reply]

You need a reliable source for the claim, and in any case, working for a politician does not imply political allegiance. St Anselm (talk) 21:33, 18 September 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Fraud claims re 20 voters

This article said 27 voters but the ref says 20, and the wording also needed changing. I've made some changes. Ive tried searching for an article on the outcome of the investigation that the AEC said would be "completed soon" when the claims surfaced in Sep 2014, but I can't find any followup articles so i've worded it with a halfway-sentence ref and then "however as yet no outcome has been publicised". Is there a better way to phrase/sequence it, and when should it all be changed to past-tense if we never hear about it again? Or, alternatively, should it even be in this bio article as it's about allegations against voters, not McGowan? Timeshift (talk) 05:50, 13 May 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Reliable sources on policy and voting?

I read this and know lots about how she came to power but nothing about her political positions. Surely these are documented, both what she says and third-party views of what she does? - David Gerard (talk) 11:58, 22 August 2018 (UTC)[reply]
