History

[edit]
Letter by SirThomas Bavin to the electors of Parramatta to support the candidature of General Lloyd in 1929.

Parramatta is the only electorate to haveexisted continuously since the first Legislative Assembly election in 1856. It elected two members simultaneously from 1856 to 1880. In 1920, it absorbedGranville and elected three members underproportional representation. In 1927, it was divided into the single-member electorates of Parramatta,Granville andAuburn.

For most of its single member history since 1927 and prior to 2011 Parramatta was a safeLabor Party seat. Prior to 2011 it was last held by the Liberals byJohn Books from 1988 to 1991. The Liberal Party had hopes of winning back the seat at the 1994 by-election when it was a marginal ALP seat but the ALP retained the seat with a huge swing towards it.

Labor went into the 2011 election holding the seat with a margin of 13.1 percent, but Liberal challengerGeoff Lee won it on a swing of 25.8 percent, turning it into a safe Liberal seat in one stroke. He was reelected in 2015, the first time in over 60 years that the Liberals (or their predecessors) have been reelected in the seat's single member incarnation.
