Ian Tuxworth was elected as an NT Nationals member by a margin of 19 votes at the March election, but had his victory annulled by the Court of Disputed Returns after a successful challenge from losing independent candidate Maggie Hickey. On 5 September, he won a by-election, again defeating Hickey, who was now representing the ALP.
