Notes

edit
  1. ^ a b Candidate is ineligible to contest the election after not completing mandatory candidate training.[11][12] They will still appear on the ballot as they were only "retired" by the Victorian Electoral Commission after ballot papers had been printed, however they cannot serve as a councillor and their votes will be distributed to other candidates according to voters' preferences.[13]
  2. ^ Also endorsed by the Libertarian Party.[24]
  3. ^ Also a member of the Liberal Party.[21]
  4. ^ Also a member of the Libertarian Party.[21]
