Jacinta Nampijinpa Price, the deputy mayor of Alice Springs, in central Australia, has announced that she will run for one of the Northern Territory’s two Senate seats in federal Parliament.

Price will run for the Country Liberal Party (CLP) against Nationals senator Sam McMahon in a bid for the seat, which will pit her against a fellow Coalition member. The Liberal-National coalition form the current Australian government.
