The current Member for Mitchell, since the 2007 federal election, is Alex Hawke, a member of the Liberal Party of Australia.
==History==
The majority of the electorate is fairly conservative, and it has been a safe seat for the Liberals for most of its existence. Labor has won it twice, for one term each. Labor last won it in 1972 in the swing that brought Gough Whitlam to power. However, proving this seat's conservative nature, the Liberals took it back in 1974 and have held it without serious difficulty since then. The southernmost suburbs of Winston Hills and Northmead are located in the Parramatta local government area, and share that LGA's bellwether tendencies. They been won by Labor at high-tide elections such as at the 2007 federal election. After the 2013 federal election, Mitchell replaced nearby Bradfield as the safest Coalition seat in metropolitan Australia, with Labor needing a 22-point swing to win it.
