Collie-Preston is a Legislative Assembly electorate in the state of Western Australia. While the seat was known as Collie for just over a century of its existence as an electorate,the seat was known as South West Mining from 1901 to 1904,and Collie-Wellington from 2005 to 2008. It is named for the South West coal mining town of Collie.
