"The indies are going to do very well. They will hold the balance of power. But after talking so big on change, do they support Labor or make Lee chief minister?" Political columnist ANDREW HUGHES calls the October 19 card.

Independents for Canberra candidates at the October 19 election have committed to strengthening community connections with a focus on enhancing the cultural vibrancy of the national capital including a two-week arts festival.
