Panagiotis "Peter" Georgiou (born 13 January 1974)[1] is a former Australian politician, who served as a Senator for Western Australia between 2017 and 2019.
He was the second candidate on the Senate ticket for Pauline Hanson's One Nation party in the 2016 Australian federal election.
The lead candidate on the ticket was Rod Culleton, Georgiou's brother-in-law.
Culleton was declared to have been elected to the Senate when the writs were returned.
[2][3] A consequence of that ruling was that a special recount of the votes was undertaken, as if Culleton had not been on the ballot, and Georgiou was elected in his place.
