A petition has been launched to secure a Senate seat for Australia's first blind parliamentarian.
Tony Clark was Labor's unsuccessful candidate in the Victorian seat of Deakin at the July election, running under the slogan "No sight but great vision", and there is now a push for him to replace retiring senator Stephen Conroy.
Former president of the Victorian Disability Services Board, Tricia Malowney, has backed a change.org petition to have Mr Clark fill the casual vacancy.
