Article Abstract:

The One Nation party's effect on the Jun 13, 1998, Queensland, Australia, elections demonstrated that voters do not believe mainstream politics or career politicians can provide solutions. The party's candidates did well against National Party candidates in sugar-growing regions. The popularity of this party is due to issues that caused voters to question who the Government represents.
