Kurri Kurri was an electoral district of the Legislative Assembly in the Australian state of New South Wales created in 1927, with the abolition of the multi-member electorates of Newcastle and Maitland and named after the Hunter Region town of Kurri Kurri.
[1][2][3][4] Kurri Kurri was a safe Labor seat and was only held by a Labor candidate.
[5] The closest contest was the 1956 election, the only occasion in which a conservative party fielded a candidate, when Liberal candidate Stanley Mettam achieved 15.6% of the vote.
[6] George Booth represented the district for more than 30 years,[3] and when he died was succeeded by his son Ken.
