The Canberra Greyhound Racing Club delivered 2500 letters supporting greyhound racing to the ACT Legislative Assembly in August.

Media were invited to the event and recorded members of the club delivering the letters to the ACT's parliament.

The club at the time stated that the letters showed Labor's decision to ban greyhound racing could hurt it at election time.

"With the ACT election less than two months away, the prospect that this large block of traditional Labor voters could shift to another party or candidates will have a significant impact on the ACT Labor Government's re-election prospects," it said in a statement in August.

But the 2500 letters, seen by Fairfax, appear to have been sent by only 147 individuals.

The club appears to have reached the 2500 total by sending the same letters to all 17 members of the Legislative Assembly.

Club spokesman Kel Watt said this week that the number of letter writers exceeded 147, saying there were hundreds of individual authors.

He denied any intention to be misleading, saying the club only said they delivered 2500 letters, not that each letter was written by a different person.

Mr Watt said the level of community support for the greyhound industry was better reflected through petitions, which he said would be delivered once the new government was formed.

"There's certainly plenty of evidence of grassroots mobilisation and response," he said.

Greyhound support groups were not surprised by the news.

Greyhound Rescue Support Network co-founder Cindy Daley said she had been sceptical of claims the club had 2500 letters of support.

"Especially given the Facebook membership and attendees at the track would struggle to get to 2000, let alone have 2000 people being passionate enough to write letters to the minister," she said.

Ms Daley said it was clearly a public relations stunt, and questioned how many of the authors were actually from the ACT, rather than surrounding areas in NSW.

The greyhound industry had campaigned strongly against Labor and the Greens at the ACT election, following Mr Barr's moves to follow NSW's ban on racing.

They hired lobbyist Kel Watt, a Labor member and donor, to spearhead their campaign.

The fate of an ACT ban has been made uncertain by the NSW government's backflip, but Chief Minister Andrew Barr has said the $1 million in public funding support to the local industry will end.

Ms Daley said greyhound support groups were closely watching what happened in the ACT after the election.

She said she had noticed a decline in the numbers of people volunteering to adopt greyhounds since the ban reversal in NSW.

Ms Daley urged the ACT government to show leadership and commit to a racing ban here, regardless of what happens in NSW.
