As she lived outside the electorate she was thought an outside chance of winning with no local support base and looked opportunistic.
Piper stated that the only reason she had been nominated was that there was in fact local support for her.
Years later from 1993 to 2008 Tilly was Labour MP Annette King's electorate secretary for the and then the electorates, despite not initially supporting King for the Labour nomination, regarding her as a right-winger.
