Bob Wilson
I met Joel Richters in late 2019 when he was campaigning as the State Labor candidate in Southern Downs. He captured 26% of the vote in the 2020 election, won by James Lister.
Joel is very active in the community and is supportive of the empowerment of indigenous rights. In 2022-23 he supported a local group’s ultimately successful plan to sponsor a refugee family in Warwick. He is an open and approachable person who has a vision for what residents want from their regional council.
