Miranda state by-election, 2013
A by-election for the New South Wales Legislative Assembly seat of Miranda occurred on 19 October 2013. The by-election was triggered by the resignation of Liberal member Graham Annesley, which was announced on 28 August 2013. Labor's Barry Collier won the seat with a 55 percent two-party vote from a 26-point two-party swing, the largest swing in New South Wales history.〔(Labor regains southern Sydney seat of Miranda: SMH 19 October 2013 )〕〔(Miranda voters' ire shown in stunning 28pc swing to Labor at by-election: Daily Telegraph 19 October 2013 )〕〔(Labor's Barry Collier returns to NSW Parliament after record swing against O'Farrell Government in Miranda by-election: Antony Green ABC News 19 October 2013 )〕
==Background==
The Liberal member for Miranda, Graham Annesley, resigned from the New South Wales Parliament and as Minister for Sport and Recreation on 28 August 2013 to take up the post of chief executive officer of the Gold Coast Titans rugby league team. Annesley in his resignation to Parliament said he never regarded himself as a politician and that there were many aspects of politics he did not care for and he has always felt more at home as a sports administrator.〔(Barry O'Farrell announces Sports Minister Graham Annesley has resigned: Daily Telegraph 28 August 2013 )〕〔(Graham Annesley resigns from NSW ministry to take up role as Gold Coast Titans chief: ABC 29 August 2013 )〕
A central Sutherland Shire electorate, Miranda crosses the peninsula between the Georges River and Port Hacking. It includes the suburbs of Como, Bonnet Bay, Oyster Bay, Kareela, Kirrawee, Gymea, Gymea Bay, Grays Point and parts of Sylvania, Miranda and Jannali. The seat's federal equivalent is in the western half of the Division of Cook.〔
Created in 1971, Miranda had traditionally been a Liberal electorate. It had only been won by Labor in landslide elections, two under Neville Wran in 1978 and 1981, and again under Bob Carr in 1999 and 2003. According to ABC psephologist Antony Green, the seat should have been recovered by the Liberals in 2007 but was narrowly retained by Labor. Going into the 2011 election, Miranda was Labor's most marginal seat, with a 0.8 percent two-party margin. In the 2011 election, the Liberals won government in a landslide. In the process, they picked up a large enough swing in Miranda to turn it into a very safe Liberal seat on paper in one stroke, with a 21.0 percent two-party margin. There were 39 seats held by the Coalition on smaller margins.〔
