Independent candidate reappears

Independent candidate for Bennelong, David Allen, has scored a brief write-up on page 5 of the Northern District Times this week. His election platform is apparently not to be elected at all - he told the Northern District Times that he "won't win Bennelong but [he] want[s] a discussion about what's important." The central issue he is pushing appears to be concern about rising foreign debt. He still does not appear to have a web site. The article does not introduce anything new - its main significance is that it confirms he has not dropped out of the race.
