“I don’t think we could have worked much harder than we have,” she said.
“We have really put in the hard yards this past four years, we have served this electorate, especially given that we had border closures and flooding.”
During the campaign, Ms Dalton has faced much scrutiny from other candidates, particularly her biggest rivals, the Nationals.
In one particular incident, the Nationals filmed Ms Dalton at a pre-polling booth where they alleged she had verbally abused a Nationals volunteer.
It was not clear from the video what was going on.
“A lot of the negativity, I’ve just ignored because it’s just pathetic and incredibly desperate,” she said.
“In that particular incident, I saw them filming and I was actually correcting a lie they were telling the constituents about water — it was hardly abuse.
“It’s taken them 12 years to sort out their water policies, they’ve had plenty of time to rectify those policies but it’s still just more of the same.”
The message Ms Dalton wants to leave voters with is that she will always vote on policy rather than on the party.
“I will always vote in the best interests of the Murray people,” she said.
“The Nats say I’m siding with Labor and Greens but I only side with legislation that I think is going to benefit people in regional NSW, and if they had good legislation then I would side with them.”
