LNP, Greens call for name changes and scrapped seats as Queensland electoral boundaries reviewed
The Queensland Redistribution Commission has received submissions about which electorates should be impacted by a boundary review.
www.abc.net.auHere’s the latest I can share based on current public reporting.
The Electoral district of Greenvale is a Victorian Legislative Assembly seat created in 2022, located in Melbourne’s northwestern suburbs, including Greenvale and surrounding areas. Iwan Walters of the Australian Labor Party has been the sitting member since the 2022 election.[1][3]
In the 2022 Victorian state election, Labor won Greenvale with Iwan Walters taking about 51% of two-party preferred votes, holding the seat from the Liberal party. Turnout was around 83% with formal votes around 37.7k.[3]
Recent coverage around Greenvale specifically (state election context) indicates the seat remained Labor-held through the 2022 results, with the Liberal candidate Usman Ghani and other minor-party candidates accounting for the remainder of first-preference votes.[1]
Notes and context:
Would you like me to pull the latest articles from a specific source (e.g., Victorian news outlets) or provide a quick summary of any recent developments you’re particularly interested in (e.g., boundary changes, demographic shifts, or policy focus in Greenvale)?
