www.newsnow.co.ukHere’s what’s happening with the Division of Farrer right now.
- The Division of Farrer is currently vacant following the resignation of former Liberal member Sussan Ley in February 2026 after the Liberal leadership events in 2025–2026. A by-election was held on May 9, 2026, and David Farley of One Nation won, becoming the division’s representative.[1][3]
- Context: Farrer has historically covered the NSW southwest, including Albury, Griffith, Leeton, and Deniliquin, with boundary changes occurring in 2006 and 2015–2016 redistributions that shifted far-west and irrigation-area boundaries, but it remains anchored in southwestern NSW.[2][1]
- For ongoing developments or official results, I’d recommend checking the Australian Electoral Commission’s by-election page and reputable Australian news outlets for post-election coverage and any subsequent shifts in representation or by-election-related updates.[4]
