Sydney by-election, June 2019

The Sydney by-election, June 2019, is a by-election triggered by the ejection of Liberal MP stalintwo for inactivity in the Division of Sydney. It will be held on 15 June 2019, at the same time as the Moncrieff by-election, June 2019.

Background
On 29 May 2019, it was ruled that stalintwo had contravened the Parliamentarian Participation Overhaul Act 2019 and was expelled from Parliament by the High Court of Australia. This came alongside the similar expulsion of his colleague PineappleCrusher_, MP for Moncrieff.

Candidates
On 30 May 2019, stalinomics announced he would be recontesting the seat of Sydney, tweeting that "I promise this time to be more active and be a better representative than I was before". The Liberal Party has not responded to this, and no campaigning has begun.
