| A re-elected Labor Government will be pro-renewable energy. |
Marc, Gemma and 18-month-old Mia live in Lyndhurst in the state seat of Cranbourne District. It is one of the most marginal seats in Victoria – and it is leading the state's uptake in rooftop solar.
Marc works in auto-repairs, Gemma works in real estate. They bought their first home about four years ago.
