I spent the night at the Rosebud Football and Netball Club, where Pauline Hanson turned up in support of One Nation’s Nepean candidate Darren Hercus … and what I saw felt like more than just another campaign stop.

From the outset, there was a clear sense that this by-election is being viewed as the first real test for One Nation in this state at the by-election for Nepean. That sentiment echoed throughout the room, where party supporters, curious locals, and first-time political participants all mingled in a packed venue that organisers admitted exceeded expectations.

As State organiser Warren Pickering put it, “Look, and we sold all those tickets out in about 11 hours. So that’s just phenomenal.” The energy matched that demand: loud, engaged, and at times, unapologetically blunt.
