Pre-election pendulum for the 2023 New South Wales state election

Last updated

The following is the pre-election pendulum for the 2023 New South Wales state election. It is based on notional margins calculated by the ABC's Antony Green. [1] Members in italics did not contest the election as a candidate for the seat they currently held or its replacement. However, the incumbent member for Holsworthy Melanie Gibbons contested the seat of Kiama. [2] By-elections were held in some seats during this term of Parliament that changed their margins. See the footnotes for details.
