Talk:Kay Elson

Candidates for state election four times
In the "The Class of 96: A Biographical Analysis of New Government Members of the Australian House of Representatives" article within the Australian Journal of Politics & History journal, in footer number 40, it says that Elson had been a candidate four times in state elections in Liberal, National or independent. I was able to find 3 of them, but can't find the 4th one as a National candidate. Does anyone know what this last one might be?  Marc nut 1996  (talk) 22:45, 23 August 2022 (UTC)
 * For convenience, this is what the footnote says: "... Kay Elson who stood at four Queensland State elections as variously a Liberal, National and Independent candidate."
 * I'll see if I can find it. Antony Green has a candidate index for Queensland elections here but it only lists the three for Kay Elson (Springwood 1986, Albert 1989, Broadwater 1992). --Canley (talk) 23:35, 23 August 2022 (UTC)
 * Note that at the 1983 state election, a Selma Elson contested Woodridge for the Nationals. Selma is Kay Elson's middle name. Seems like too much of a coincidence so I would say that was the same person contesting under a different name. --Canley (talk) 23:39, 23 August 2022 (UTC)
 * There's a Queensland Parliamentary Paper from 1983 which as far as I can see refers to this candidature as for "Elson, Selma Kay", so looks like she swapped her names around at some point. --Canley (talk) 00:18, 24 August 2022 (UTC)
 * I am satisfied to believe that they are the same person. I will add that to the article with some explanation at some time.  Marc nut 1996  (talk) 04:06, 24 August 2022 (UTC)
