The main candidates touted ahead of the election were Dean Nalder,a member of parliament since 2013 and a minister in the Barnett Ministry,and Zak Kirkup,a member of parliament since 2017. Nalder declined to nominate for the election after it became clear he did not have the full support of the Liberal Party caucus.
