Some, like Nationals federal candidate Kevin Hogan and Nationals NSW MP Chris Gulaptis came for the photo opportunities afforded by news cameras, others came to support their community during the long, cold haul on the picket line last night.
Below are some of these long haulers.
Former Country Labor candidate for the Clarence by-election Peter Ellem, second from left, shows solidarity at the Grafton Gaol picket line with United Services Union Regional Organiser Craig Chandler, Corrective Services teacher Sharryn Usher and husband Robert, Public Services Association Assistant General Secretary Shane O'Brien and Grafton Gaol Assistant Superintendent Damien 'Bluey' Carter.
The picket line 7 July 2012
The Daily Examiner Editor Jenna Carney and photographer Debrah Novak were also on the line last night.
It is understood that, earlier in the night, a local tow truck (called by police to move a vehicle blocking the entrance to Grafton Gaol) refused to cross the line.
At 3pm on Sunday 8 July it was reported:
These transfer trucks are expected back tomorrow morning.
The picket line holds firm.
