Martin McManus (Australian politician)

Martin John McManus (born 16 November 1961) is a former Australian politician. Born in Hobart, Tasmania, he trained as a teacher. He is the great grandson of Edward Mulcahy, a long-serving Tasmanian Senator and MHA. On 19 October 2001, he was elected as a Liberal to the Tasmanian House of Assembly for the seat of Franklin in a recount caused by the resignation of Peter Hodgman. He was defeated for re-election in 2002 considered to be one of the worst Tasmanian Liberal Party losses ever where both the Leader and Deputy Leader also lost their seats. Martin McManus served as an Alderman for the Clarence City Council first elected in 1996. He served as an elected member for the City of Clarence for 17 years, concluding in October 2014. He is a graduate of both the University of Tasmania and the University of New South Wales. [citation needed]. [1]
