Tamworth, an electoral district of the Legislative Assembly in the Australian state of New South Wales, has had two incarnations from 1890 until 1920 and from 1927 until the present. It initially returned two members until 1894 and has since returned a single member for all subsequent elections.[1][2][3][4]
Tamworth was expanded to include part of the abolished seat of Quirindi. Raymond Walsh (Independent) had won the 1901 election for Tamworth, however he was made bankrupt in 1903 and was defeated in the subsequent by-election, by John Garland (Liberal Reform). Robert Levien (Progressive) was the member for Quirindi and had previously been one of two members for Tamworth from 1880 until 1894.
^Bill Chaffey had been elected as a UAP candidate at the 1940 Tamworth by-election.[39] He continued to support the government however declined UAP endorsement for the 1941 election on the basis his support came from the Country Party as well as the UAP.[40]
