Ghose said the primary issue influencing his vote was action COVID-19 regulations, as he was concerned that case number in Victoria were going up. His wife, Basuli Ghose, said she wanted to see free kinder and climate change policy from a new government. "It will be good for families to have free kinder and it will create more jobs," she said. As for climate policy, she said her stance was simple; she wanted to see her son "grow up in a good environment that is pollution free." 26 Nov 2022Credit:Paul JeffersAdvertisement25/63Shane Snyder and wife Juliana took their children - Beau, 7, Asher, 4, and Juliana, 5 - with them when they voted at Essex Heights Primary School in Mount Waverley on Saturday.Credit:Eddie Jim26/63Mulgrave independent candidate Ian Cook was on the campaign trail in Springvale as part of his effort to unseat Premier Daniel Andrews.

That issue was his concern at the Andrews government's decision in 2018 to sign a belt-and-road agreement with China; deal that was undone by the federal government last year.Credit:Simon Schluter29/63Victorian Liberal leader Matthew Guy cast his vote in Templestowe on Election day.
