Yes, indeed. The Animal Justice Party candidate for Menzies is one such person. Is there anyone else in the guide who has been stood-down or disendorsed that you are aware of?

“I just wanted to send a big thank you for the excellent election candidate summary on your website.

Marriage equality is an important election issue for me and your summary has aided me in deciding my preferences.

Additionally, the links you have provided to each candidates website and/or Facebook page are excellent. To my surprise these aren’t even provided on the AEC’s website which is where I initially searched before turning to Google which lead me to your site.”
