Wills, Electoral division in Victoria, Australia
Wills is an electoral division covering areas in northern Melbourne with parts of multiple local councils in Victoria. The division encompasses inner-city neighborhoods with a mix of residential and urban development.
The division is named after William John Wills, a surveyor and astronomer who participated in an 1860 expedition from Melbourne toward the Gulf of Carpentaria. That journey was significant in early exploration and mapping of Australia's interior.
The division contains numerous second-generation Greek and Italian immigrants who maintain strong connections to their heritage within inner-city neighborhoods.
Voters can check their district boundaries and polling locations online through official electoral websites for current registration information. All necessary voting details are presented clearly and are accessible to residents.
A 1992 by-election here ended unusually when the result was declared void due to procedural irregularities, with twenty-two candidates competing. This rare outcome made the election notable in Australian electoral history.
