History

[edit]

Wollongong was created in 1904, replacing parts ofWoronora andIllawarra.^[7]^[8] In 1920, with the introduction ofproportional representation, it was absorbed intoWollondilly, along withAllowrie. In 1927, with the abolition of proportional representation, it was recreated, along with a newIllawarra electorate. In 1930, it was replaced byBulli. In 1941, a new electorate ofWollongong-Kembla was created. This was split into Wollongong andKembla in 1968. Wollongong has rarely been won by the right wingLiberal party and in recent decades has become one of Labor's safest seats.
