Political Career

[edit]

First Mayorship and Resignation

[edit]

Arnol was elected to the mayorship in 1999 and was subsequently re-elected into that role until her resignation in 2005.[3] Arnol said she resigned due to repeated "abuse" from members of the community due to decisions she had made as mayor.[1]

State and Federal election campaigns

[edit]

Arnol ran for the Electoral division of Rumney in the 2017 Tasmanian Legislative Council periodic election for the Shooters, Fishers and Farmers Party.[4] Arnol was unsuccessful in this run, receiving the second-last vote count, of 1,616 first-preference votes.[5]

Arnol ran for the Australian Senate in 2013 for the Country Alliance. Arnol was unsuccessful, receiving 197 below-the-line votes.[6]
