Jane Gerick (Paperback)

Please note that the content of this book primarily consists of articles available from Wikipedia or other free sources online. Jane Frances Gerick (23 April 1963 - 25 December 2003) was an Australian politician. She served for one term as a Labor member of the Australian House of Representatives from 1998 to 2001, representing the division of Canning. Gerick was elected to federal parliament as one of several new Labor MPs at the 1998 federal election; her party rebounded strongly from its landslide defeat at the 1996 federal election but narrowly failed to win back government. Gerick defeated one term Liberal MP Ricky Johnston. She won with 53.5% of the two party preferred vote, but a redistribution during the next term scaled this margin back to an estimated 50.4%.
