ParliamentThe party's upper house vote doubled from 0.6 percent to 1.2 percent at the 2010 state election, and after receiving preferences, Vincent was elected to the eleventh and last upper house seat. Vincent was listed second on the party's upper house ticket, but received the preferences of first candidate Paul Collier who died of a brain haemorrhage eleven days before the election.[7] Aged 21 at the time of election, Vincent was the youngest member of the Parliament of South Australia and the youngest woman elected to any Australian parliament.[8][9] She stated she would "probably side with The Greens on certain issues".[10][11] Vincent was a member of a number of parliamentary committees including the Social Development Committee, Access to and Interaction with the Justice System for People with Disabilities, Disability Services Funding, Electoral Matters in South Australia, Joint Committee on the Operation of the Transplantation and Anatomy Act 1983, Access to the Education System for Students with Disabilities, and the Joint Committee on matters relating to Elder Abuse.[12] She was defeated in the 2018 state election even as the Dignity Party increased their primary vote.
