The Hume electorate stretches from Camden in the northeast, Goulburn in the south, and Boorowa in the west.
"In an electorate that covers such a large area with broad demographics, we are looking for someone who can represent farmers and retirees in the bush just as well as they represent families in the suburbs," Mr Murphy said.
"People from all over the electorate turned up for the event. So, we are definitely looking forward to our next one in Goulburn. The date of the event will be decided by the end of this week.
"The Goulburn event will be followed by more such events that will be held in the Southern Highlands and Camden. Anyone looking to attend these events or want to get involved can head over to our website to register for updates."
'Vote Angus Out' group seeks to build a community campaign in the Hume that focuses on key issues such as a federal ICAC, supporting Australians and Australian industry, a transition to a cleaner future for workers and businesses, and more support for farmers and families doing it tough.
