If you haven’t voted yet – and a lot of you already have! – here are the polling places for Election Day this Saturday (May 3).<\/p>\n

Three Federal Electorates cut across the South Burnett region, each currently held by an LNP MP:<\/p>\n

    \n
  • Flynn<\/strong>\u00a0(which includes Wondai and Proston) \u2013 Colin Boyce with a 3.82 per cent margin<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n
      \n
    • Maranoa<\/strong>\u00a0(which includes Wooroolin, Kingaroy, Kumbia and Blackbutt) \u2013 David Littleproud with a 22.12 per cent margin<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n
