The Seven Year Itch featured in the downfall of the Henderson Team . On election day , near the Darwin Karama electorate voting booth-the seat held by Treasurer , Delia Lawrie , now Leader of the Opposition - was none other than the Hollywood film star , Marilyn Monroe , flaunting a CLP T-shirt . Actually it was the larger than life figure of Marilyn which used to be one of the unusual items on display in Finlay’s Sticky Beak Shop, depicting the scene from The Seven Year Itch , her skirt blown up by gusts from subway vents. Little Darwin understands that the figure , complete with a wind blowing device, was bought from Finlay’s for a mere 50 bucks. In her slightly more demure attire, she supported young CLP candidate, Rohan Kelly, 23, who polled well for a new chum . It is a shame that the real Marilyn was not available to sing happy birthday , Mr President , to Terry Mills . Is it true that some ALP helpers complained about Marilyn’s presence ? The above photograph shows a 26ft high sculpture of Marilyn in the itchy pose, which stopped the traffic in Chicago. How come Darwin's dynamic media did not pick up the fact that Marilyn participated in the election ?
