About us
Voices of Bass started as a group of local residents who felt that there would be many benefits in supporting a community-minded independent to run against the major parties in the Bass State electorate in the 2026 State election.
Voices for Bass gives the community the opportunity to choose their own representative, and achieve better representation on State parliament. It gives agency to voters and promotes healthier democracy.
