SHERWOOD BY-ELECTION

JAUSTRALIA
FOR PRESS 26 NOVEMBER 1978
SHERWOOD BY-ELECTION
The Queensland Liberal Party has good cause to be pleased with
its success in the Sherwood by-election.
It polled particularly well in a by-election situation, and
in a seat where after 22 years, the previous Liberal Member
had built up a large personal following.
The convincing win is a particular tribute to the Liberal's
new Parliamentary leader in Queensland, Dr. Llew Edwards.
I extend my warmest congratulations to Dr Edwards, and
to the new Liberal Member for Sherwood, Mr Angus Innes.
