So excited to put Bugle Of Bigots dead last.
Can't really find anything about Ky Cao, I think he's some Vietnamese businessman?
Kim Mubarak is wild. Ugandan refugee, big believer in unity, women’s rights, anti-racism, indigenous rights, palestine, and vaguely left economics... but also strongly religious, has Liberals as the preference on his how-to-vote, and posted a bunch of anti-lockdown stuff during the pandemic.

I always wondered if anyone actually votes for ungrouped independents other than their immediate family.
I couldn't even be bothered searching for them when I made the O.P.

That is an interesting scramble of the generally held positions. Not surprising though, i'm finding more people aren't identifying on a policy level with either of the two thus far mainstream sides.
I actually think this could be a boon for the Nationals over the Liberals in this country, as they're vaguely more 'lefty' economically, while having that ideological libertarrian facade, however farcicle their libertarianism is. I find the most true libertarians end up pretty far 'leftish'.

So nice to have a few parties to put above the majors rather than just the nutjob ones from the state ballot
