Election results
The NT Greens have had very little electoral success when compared to other branches of the Greens. The party's electoral success in the Northern Territory is mostly limited to local government. The NT Greens was the last branch of the Greens to gain parliamentary representation. The Greens have never had any representatives from the Northern Territory in the Federal Parliament, nor had they had any representatives in the Northern Territory Legislative Assembly until the 2024 Northern Territory general election. At territory elections, the Northern Territory consistently has the lowest Greens vote of any state or territory, peaking at 8.1%. However, the Greens only field candidates in select seats (mostly in the Northern Territory's three largest cities: Darwin, Palmerston and Alice Springs), being the only Greens branch in Australia to not run in every seat of 2024. At the 2020 general election, the party fielded candidates in 10 of the 25 electoral divisions of the Legislative Assembly: Araluen, Braitling, Casuarina, Daly, Fannie Bay, Goyder, Johnston, Namatjira, Nightcliff and Electoral division of Port Darwin. Of these, the party's highest vote was in Nightcliff (where they almost finished second), while Daly, Goyder and Namatjira were the only seats outside Darwin or Alice Springs that the party contested. Prior to the 2024 election, the only time the Greens had finished second in any seat at a Northern Territory general election was in 2008, when the Greens finished second in the Alice Springs-based seat of Braitling, where the party finished second to the CLP; however, the Greens won just 29.7% of the two-candidate-preferred vote against the CLP's 70.3%. At the 2024 election they won the division of Nightcliff to earn their first seat in the Legislative Assembly, and finished close seconds to the CLP in both Fannie Bay and Braitling. On the federal level, the Greens field candidates in both of the Northern Territory's House of Representatives electorates: the metropolitan seat of Solomon and the remote seat of Lingiari, with the party performing better in Solomon than in Lingiari. However, as the two territories only elect two senators each, the Greens have never had a representative in the Senate from either of the two territories. Local government The NT Greens currently have two members elected to local government in the Northern Territory: Morgan Rickard, Alderman for Chan Ward in City of Darwin, and Dianne Stokes, elected in Patta Ward, Barkly Regional Council. Dianne Stokes is currently the Deputy Mayor of Barkly Regional Council. The NT Greens have previously had three Aldermen on City of Darwin: Greg Jarvis (2008–10), Robin Knox (2010–21), and Simon Niblock (2012–21). The NT Greens also elected a Councillor, Jade Kudrenko, to Alice Springs Town Council in 2012. Asta Hill has served as mayor of Alice Springs since 2025.
