| 释义 |
A by-election was held in the Legislative Assembly of Queensland seat of Southport on 20 June 1987. It was triggered by the death of sitting National Party member Doug Jennings on 9 April 1987, which remains the most recent time a sitting Queensland MP has died. The seat was formerly a Liberal seat until 1980, and the by-election took place in the midst of the Joh for Canberra push. However, the campaign dwelled almost entirely on local matters.[1] CandidatesThe Nationals selected Mick Veivers, a rugby league identity and acknowledged Sir Joh supporter, while the Liberals selected Keith Thompson, a City of Gold Coast alderman. Perennial independent candidate William Aabraham-Steer, who had contested McPherson and Moncrieff at various federal elections, also contested.[1] ResultsThe seat was retained by the National Party with the election of candidate and former Australian rugby league international Mick Veivers.[1] {{Election box begin | title=Southport state by-election, 1987[2]}}{{Election box candidate AU party|party = Nationals QLD |candidate = Mick Veivers |votes = 7,164 |percentage = 46.20 |change = −4.72 }}{{Election box candidate AU party |party = Liberal QLD |candidate = Keith Thompson |votes = 3,928 |percentage = 25.33 |change = +1.80 }}{{Election box candidate AU party |party = Labor QLD |candidate = Robert Lee |votes = 3,806 |percentage = 24.54 |change = +2.26 }}{{Election box candidate AU party |party = Independent |candidate = Jim McDonagh |votes = 490 |percentage = 3.16 |change = +3.16 }}{{Election box candidate AU party |party = Independent |candidate = William Aabraham-Steer |votes = 118 |percentage = 0.76 |change = +0.76 }}{{Election box formal |votes = 15,506 |percentage = 97.93 |change = −0.28 }}{{Election box informal |votes = 327 |percentage = 2.07 |change = +0.28 }}{{Election box turnout |votes = 15,833 |percentage = 74.52 |change = −14.56 }}{{Election box 2pp}}{{Election box candidate AU party |party = Nationals QLD |candidate = Mick Veivers |votes = 10,530 |percentage = 67.91 |change = }}{{Election box candidate AU party |party = Labor QLD |candidate = Robert Lee |votes = 4976 |percentage = 32.09 |change = }}{{Election box hold AU party |winner = Nationals QLD |swing = }}{{Election box end}} See also
