Electoral district of Wentworth

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Former state electoral district of New South Wales, Australia

This article is about the New South Wales state electorate. For the Australian federal electorate, seeDivision of Wentworth. For other uses, seeWentworth (disambiguation).

Wentworth was anelectoral district for theLegislative Assembly in the far south west of theAustralian state ofNew South Wales and named after and including the town ofWentworth. It established in 1880 and partly replacingLachlan. From 1885 until 1889 it elected two members. The population in Wentworth had grown significantly since the 1880 redistribution, especially as a result of the growth of mining atBroken Hill, with the electoral roll growing from 1,901 in 1880 to 5,617 in 1887. Under the formula for seats, Wentworth was due to return 3 members, however because of the large area covered by the district, in 1889 it was split into 3, Wentworth,Sturt andWilcannia.^[1] Wentworth retained theeponymous town, along with the towns ofMenindie andPooncaira. Sturt contained the mining boom towns of Broken Hill,Silverton andMilparinka whileWilcannia was the only town in that district.

The district was abolished in 1904 due to the re-distribution of electorates following the1903 New South Wales referendum, which required the number of members of the Legislative Assembly to be reduced from 125 to 90.^[2] It was replaced by a re-createddistrict of The Murray along with parts of The Lachlan and the abolisheddistrict of Hay.^[3]^[4]^[5]
