Biography

I’m David Bolt, your local Liberal for Murray-Wellington.

My wife, Bridget, and I raised our family here in our community on farmland where my parents built a home in the early ‘60s. To this day, we continue to cherish the country lifestyle of this wonderful region.

After earning a bachelor’s degree in electronic engineering, I built my career and managed the Australia and New Zealand operations for a leading multinational technology company.

Later, I founded a small business specialising in software development and IT services.

I’ve had the pleasure of serving as President of the Shire of Murray since 2017. Under my leadership, our Shire has achieved state and national recognition for its economic initiatives, environmental credentials, and focus on developing the tourism economy.
I want to continue delivering for our community as your member for Murray-Wellington.

As part of the Liberal team, I am fighting for real action on the cost of living, better access to local health services, increased police resources, and support for local businesses and entrepreneurs to create jobs.

I have the energy and experience to represent you in the State Parliament.

Let’s work together to make our community even safer and stronger.
