The Greens have announced Angelica Di Camillo as their candidate for the nearby Federal electorate of Higgins.
A seasoned campaign warrior, Angelica was the Greens candidate in the recent Aston By-Election securing 10.1% of the votes.
Greener pastures …
TWiSK was surprised by this announcement because only two weeks ago Angelica was at the Progressive Port Phillip launch and told us that she wanted to be the Greens candidate for Alma Ward in the council elections later in October.
Readers will recall that former Greens Councillor Katherine Copsey departed Council after she won a seat in the Victorian Legislative Council.
Hodgins-May set for Senate vacancy
And the former ‘perpetual’ Greens candidate for Macnamara, Steph Hodgins-May is set to ascend to the Senate replacing retiring Greens Senator Janet Rice (who gave her farewell speech last week).
And to add to the musical chairs theme, the new Greens candidate for Macnamara is Sonya Semmens the former candidate for Higgins – is your head spinning or are you cheering?

Escalator to parliament or musical chairs or both?
