Candidates of the 2024 Queensland state election

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

The candidates of the 2024 Queensland state election vary and cover all ninety-three electorates in all of the state's regions.

Candidates[edit]

Crisafulli began announcing LNP candidates 18 months prior to the election, making the LNP the first party to formally endorse candidates for the election.[1] The LNP announced several other candidates afterwards. The second party to formally endorse a candidate was Katter's Australian Party (KAP), announcing Bruce Logan as their candidate for the Far North Queensland seat of Cook on 6 October 2023. [2] Logan would later withdraw from the race, citing family issues and property damage arising from Cyclone Jasper.[3]
