## Candidates

Crisafulli began announcing LNP candidates 18 months prior to the election, making the LNP the first party to formally endorse candidates for the election. The LNP announced several other candidates afterwards. The second party to formally endorse a candidate was Katter's Australian Party (KAP), announcing Bruce Logan as their candidate for the Far North Queensland seat of Cook on 6 October 2023. Logan would later withdraw from the race, citing family issues and property damage arising from Cyclone Jasper. Names of incumbent MPs who are contesting are highlighted in bold.
