Investment guru David Paradice will vote for independent Kirsty O’Connell in this Saturday’s NSW state byelection in the Upper Hunter.
Ms O’Connell has already been endorsed by former Liberal prime minister Malcolm Turnbull, a move which upset his former Coalition colleagues.

Mr Paradice said his vote for Ms O’Connell is motivated by his environmental concerns for the Upper Hunter and the future of coal in the seat.
“I like her enthusiasm and interest in doing the right thing,” Mr Paradice said.
“A lot of people I’ve grown up with, a lot of people in the Hunter Valley, know her. That’s good enough for me.” ....

Nationals likely to retain Upper Hunter, secure Berejiklian govt majority

After six long weeks of campaigning, the Nationals appear on track to retain the Upper Hunter seat they've held for 90 years in a crucial byelection that threatened the Berejiklian government's majority in NSW.

Premier Gladys Berejiklian joined the campaign trail in an eleventh hour bid to save the seat.

The Berejiklian government's majority became precarious after former Nationals MP Michael Johnsen quit parliament following serious sexual misconduct allegations.

The Labor Party pinned its hopes on former coal miner and union boss Jeff Drayton, but it wasn't enough.

Meanwhile, NSW Nationals Leader John Barilaro declared "the Nats are back", thanking former prime minister Malcolm Turnbull in jest for his decision to back independent candidate Kirsty O'Connell. ....
