Strategy for the Greens?

[Snefix 1]

Does anyone have a good strategy for the Greens in the Australia '04 scenario? I haven't been able to win any seats for them quite yet. I tried focusing on strictly Tasmania, bashing Latham on a high-profile issue, and while at the same time promoting the leftist position on National Security, but no luck thus far. Anyone have any ideas?

The only time I've ever been able to win seats with the Greens is to edit the scenario and make them have higher starting percentages, giving Brown more money and higher points, changing the views of areas etc.

I don't know how it happened because I wasn't even campaigning there at all, but I tried my Tasmania strategy again and I won a seat in South Australia without even stepping foot there or running an ad. It was quite strange.

You should try targeting the Seats of Sydney, Bennelong, Melbourne and Cunningham. There's about 2 or 3 seats in the melbourne area where the Green's candidate starts at ariund 20%.
