Mirabella beat Melbourne-based anaesthetist, Andrew Walpole and Wodonga businessman, Kevin Ekendahl to run in Indi at the next federal election.
Labor have pre-selected 21 year old Wodonga Councillor, Eric Kerr (@EricKerrforIndi and @eric_kerr2).
An slap in the face to voters in Indi. Sophie Mirabella has been preselected to run for Indi.

The Nationals have announced they’ll run a candidate in the seat, but have not been through the preselection process. Marty Corboy (@marty_corboy) is widely tipped to run for the Nationals. Corboy told No Fibs:
A convincing win and clearly the candidate the Liberal party want to represent them at the forthcoming election. I wish her well.
