The member for the seat, Kristy McBain, spoke at Freebody Oval with the Queanbeyan Kangaroos Rugby League Club, including mayor Kenrick Winchester and club president Ian Baker, promising to rebuild training facilities that would include women's change rooms.

"This ground is used 12 months of the year and this facility needs a significant upgrade, so a future Albanese Labor government will invest a million dollars to upgrade this facility and hopefully that will leverage some other works that need to take place on this oval, such a lighting upgrades," she said.

The electorate is on a razor thin margin of 0.9 per cent, yet neither leader of the major parties have visited the seat.

In contrast, the seat of Gilmore next door has had two visits from the Prime Minister on the first day of the election and this Monday, as well as one from opposition leader Anthony Albanese a few weeks ago.

Ms McBain said she's "not sure what the Liberals are doing in this electorate" and noted her contender Jerry Nockles "got into the race very, very late" and "hasn't been spotted around the area too much".

"What I know is I'm working hard for it, I've travelled over 97,000 kilometres since I've been elected because my job is to represent my community and that's what I'm doing," she said.

The electorate geographically spans 41,617 kilometres including major towns to farming and coastal regions, which Ms McBain said makes for "a lot of themes" across the regions.

Ms McBain found the issue she had heard tying most of the diverse residents together is "their want for an integrity commission in federal government".

"It's not a Canberra bubble issue because people are talking to me about it everyday," she said.
