Gamers 4 Croydon are hoping to win the Croydon seat against Michael Atkinson, the one man preventing an R18+ rating for video games in Australia, in the next elections. Atkinson recently claimed that the group will struggle to gain even 1% of the vote, but Chris Prior, co-founder of Gamers 4 Croydon, has assured gamers that they "will, and that will haunt (Atkinson)."

21-year-old Kat Nicholson (pictured) will be running directly against Atkinson in the upcoming Croydon elections.

Chris Prior, co-founder of Gamers 4 Croydon, has set his party’s sights on defeating Attorney-General Michael Atkinson at the South Australian state election in March.

“We’re in this race to win the seat of Croydon,” Prior told Kotaku earlier today. “That’s always been the aim, and that’s what we’re all working towards.”

Prior is one of two Gamers 4 Croydon candidates contesting the state election. He will be standing for the Legislative Council while Kat Nicholson, pictured, will be running directly against Atkinson in Croydon.

“He has said he expects we’ll not get more than 1% of the vote,” Prior says. “We will, and that will haunt him.”
