Leaders in their own words, each quote linked to its source.
Ben Carroll
Premier since 28 July 2026; Member for Niddrie
Integrity & government
I'm working hard every day, day and night, to do what I think is in Victoria's interests.
Integrity & government
I made it very clear. You only have to look at what I've done already.
Jess Wilson
Leader of the Opposition since 18 November 2025; Member for Kew; leads the Liberal/National Coalition
Energy
Under a Liberals and Nationals government that I lead, Victorians will have a choice about how they heat their homes, how they cook their meals and how they run their businesses.
Roads
Every time it rains in Victoria, we shouldn't see more potholes opening up on our roads because this Labor government has failed to maintain our roads for 12 years.
Danny O'Brien
Nationals leader; Member for Gippsland South; Coalition partner
Regional Victoria
One Nation will be a threat for us again and we're working very hard to make sure that we win people's votes because we've got a plan to get the state back on track and because we've got a plan for a fair share for regional Victoria.
The campaign
We've got the plan and if you want to get rid of the Labor Party, voting for One Nation doesn't help do that.
Ellen Sandell
Victorian Greens leader; Member for Melbourne
Housing & renting
My message to renters is, Labor doesn't care about you, if they did, we would have rent controls.
Housing & renting
If we had capped rent increases, renters would be living in their own homes by now instead of funnelling more and more of their income every year into their landlord's pockets.
Warren Pickering
One Nation Victoria leader; candidate for Pakenham
Crime
The policy that I'm most proud of, and probably the most important to Victoria, is our crime policy.
Crime
We're proposing to utilise some of the estimated 10,000 suitably qualified contemporary veterans in this state to lean into the police force.
I respect your money.

I've written to the Premier urging him not to enter into any tenders or contracts for new offshore wind transmission lines in Gippsland ahead of the state election.

I think it's a real threat. Absolutely, we understand people are angry.
