Ross was not re-endorsed by his own party to stand in the Northern Territory general election, 2012. This has been gossip within the CLP since May 2011, after he angered several of his colleagues by publicly supporting the distribution of condoms at a Darwin music festival. Nonetheless, he was surprised when he lost his preselection. CLP Party President Sue Fraser-Adams, was quoted in a newspaper article that "politics doesn't suit him, it's a lot harder than it looks" she went on to say that it was a safe seat for the party. Bohlin announced that he would run as an independent candidate in July.
