McCallum declares candidacy for Northland nomination

Grant McCallum has announced:

Northland dairy farmer, Grant McCallum, has announced he will contest the nomination for Northland in the up-coming by-election.

His contribution to the local Maungaturoto community has included roles in Education and Sport. He now feels it is time to seek the support of the Northland National Party to be its candidate and to represent the people of Northland in Parliament.

“After careful consideration, my family and I have decided the time is right to put my name forward. This is an opportunity to work with all of Northland’s communities and serve the people of Northland –to continue the work of the John Key led Government in focusing on the opportunities in the North, both economic and social. If selected, I will be a strong voice for Northland in the National Government.”

Grant is a local and will be a strong contender for the nomination. He has been a member of the Party’s Board of Directors for some years, winning election at the annual conference.

I’m sure there will be other strong candidates also. The selection will be on 28 February.
