Griffith, Federal electoral division in Brisbane, Australia
Griffith is a federal electoral division that spans approximately 57 square kilometers across Brisbane's inner southern suburbs. The area covers several residential neighborhoods with diverse populations and mixed urban development.
The electoral division was established in 1934 to replace the former Oxley seat as Brisbane's population expanded. Early elections produced remarkably close results with margins sometimes decided by just a handful of votes.
This electoral division represents Brisbane's inner southern suburbs as they have transformed from working-class neighborhoods into a diverse urban area where professionals and families now live side by side.
Voters can access electoral information and updates through the Australian Electoral Commission website and local electoral offices throughout the area. Community centers in the region also provide resources and details about local voting processes.
A Greens candidate won this seat in 2022, marking the first victory for this party since the division was created, reflecting a significant shift in voter preferences. This outcome demonstrated how political attitudes in the area had evolved over decades.
