Elections for the 58th NSW parliament will be held on 25th March 2023. The LNP and its associates will be seeking a fourth consecutive term
In accordance with state constitution the Electoral Commission is required to review district boundaries from the previous 2 elections to ensure the number of voters in each districts.
In November 2020, the proposed redistribution names and boundaries was released to the public for submission. All proposed abolished, created or renamed districts are within Sydney. In August 2021, the final determinations were gazetted
The Labor-held district of Lakemba will be abolished and largely replaced by the adjacent Bankstown. A new district of Leppington in south-west Sydney will be created from Camden and Macquarie Fields.[17]
A number of Liberal-held districts will be renamed, to reflect the population centre in the districts’ new boundaries:[17]
In Sept 2022 Labor took the lead in the polls only for LNP to claw their way back in November.
Overall the political breakdown at state level: Labor 4 LNP 2. The NT & ACT territories are also Labor.
It's possible the NSW LNP make their federal counterparts gender diversity look robust in comparison. However recent attempts to close this gender diversity gap have been handled poorly as the left and right factions fight to protect their own. At the moment it appears some candidates won't be selected until late January giving them little time before the election.
Labor will be hoping to get a boost via the goodwill generated by their Federal colleagues which they'll definitely need. They're hardly dominating the narrative here in NSW. What they'll do with the recent self-reporting by the LNP of branch stacking remains to be seen.
The alleged branch-stacking operation is understood to have included more than 100 members, and involved people being signed up to the party and given fake email addresses in a process that may have been used to influence key votes on policy and preselections
Meanwhile both parties are far from happy the the 'Teal threat' and continue to chip away at a state. As a result the LNP announced a target to cut emissions by 70% by 2035 (this won't be legislated - which will lead cynics to count down the months for its retractions should the LNP be returned to power.
Three months to go - let the games begin.
