List of local government political parties in Australia
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
In addition to political parties registered at state and national level in, a number of political parties and groups compete solely in local government elections in Australia.
Some of these parties are officially registered with electoral commissions in their respective states.[1]
Non-local parties refers to parties in each state or territory that endorse candidates for local elections, but do not exclusively operate at a local level. This differs in each jurisdiction, with the Australian Labor Party and the Liberal Party of Australia only contesting in certain states.[2]
The Australian Greens have endorsed councillors in all states and territories, except South Australia.[3]
