The WA Electoral Distribution Commission has announced proposed boundary changes to a majority of the state’s electoral districts.

William Bowe from The Poll Bludger spoke with Oly Peterson on 6PR’s Perth Live.

“If we had smaller more serviceable electorates out in the regions of WA, that would have the effect that voters in the city would have less powerful votes than voters in the country,” Mr Bowe said.

A brand new electorate called Oakford will be created while Moore and North West Central will merge into a single electorate called Mid-West.
