Notes

  1. ^ Wammerawa has been included as a second Labor seat from the 1922 election. The returning officer declared that William Ashford (Independent) had been elected 3rd,[2] however the Elections and Qualifications Committee upheld a petition by Joseph Clark (Labor) and after re-counting the votes declared that Clark had been elected.[3][4]
