Политическая карьера [ править ]

Государственные выборы 2017 г. [ править ]

In 2017, Tantari was the Labor Party candidate for Hervey Bay. He received 29.1% of the vote, behind the Liberal National candidate, Ted Sorensen, who received 37.7% of the vote. After preferences, Tantari received 40.9% of the vote to Sorensen's 59.1%.[1]

Tantari's 2017 campaign emphasised growing the region's educational institutions.[5]

During a 2017 campaign event, Tantari was confronted by Pauline Hanson of the One Nation Party. Hanson accused Tantari of "bullying" and "assaulting" a One Nation Party candidate. Tantari denied Hanson's claim, calling it a "stunt" to bolster the profile of the One Nation Party candidate.[6][7]

2020 state election[edit]

In his 2020 campaign, Tantari called for the re-establishment of the Ministerial Regional Community Forum, based out of Hervey Bay, to help bolster the economic significance of the region.[2]

Prior to the 2020 Queensland state election, the seat of Hervey Bay was treated as a "safe" seat for the Liberal Nationals.[8] In the initial reporting, Tantari appears to have gained an 11% swing, securing the seat for Labor.[1] Political reactions emphasised that the campaigning efforts of One Nation had complicated the electorate divide and actually assisted Labor to win the seat.[8]

Parliamentary Activities[edit]

Tantari is a member of the Queensland Parliament's Economics and Governance Committee.
