Labor’s Darling Range by-election candidate announced as Tania Lawrence

LABOR has announced Tania Lawrence as the party’s new candidate for the Darling Range by-election.

Ms Lawrence is Labor’s second candidate for the seat after its first candidate, Colleen Yates, pulled out of the race last week after questions emerged over her claims about her academic qualifications she made online.

Ms Lawrence, who lives in Mundaring, works at Woodside and has also served in the public sector, in emergency response management and counter-terrorism roles.

She was also the first elected female president of Motorcycling Australia.
