The Age says what we’ve known for months — that it’s a two horse race between Independent Shima Ibuki and a tired Liberal. Lib MP John Pesutto won Hawthorn by just over 1,500 votes in 2022\. Since then he’s lost the Liberal leadership, lost a defamation case that cost him millions, and spent the last year and a half on the backbench. He’s hanging on by his fingernails. Hawthorn voters have a clear choice: a tired Liberal who’s spent his time fighting his own party, or an Independent whose spent that time delivering for Hawthorn as Deputy Mayor and Boroondara Councillor. All bets are off.
