Abstract
The Federal election has vindicated Marion Scrymgour's reading of her constituents. Labor received unprecedented support in the electorate of Lingiari, polling at up to 95% at some remote area voting booths. Nell Brown of Barunga community stated "We voted to stop that Intervention".
The confluence of a Federal government that promises to be consultative, socially progressive and economically responsible and an Aboriginal Deputy Chief Minister who really knows her electorate provides unprecedented opportunity for life-changing policy outcomes for Aboriginal Territorians.
