Keywords: people text Flyer distributed around the Division of Swan in Perth's inner south eastern suburbs for Labor candidate Tammy Solonec - a workers' compensation lawyer lawyer and former Indigenous Rights Manager for Amnesty International. Sonolec was also a former Green WA Legislative Council candidate in 2013. Swan is currently held by Liberal Steve Irons on a margin of 7.3% increasing vote in recent elections, although current polling shows a swing to Labor in Western Australia. Swan has existed as a Federal electorate since the first Australian Federal Parliament in 1901, when Western Australia had a small population with only five electorates, the same as Tasmania had and still has today. The Division of Swan is situated between the Swan and Canning Rivers and bounded by the Perth Airport to the north and Roe Highway to the east. The 2016 election sees boundary changes as Western Australia gains a sixteenth Division 'Burt' in the adjoining Gosnells area. This sees Swan lose the suburbs of Lynwood and Langford to Burt and gain more of the Perth Airport area and gain the suburb of High Wycombe from the Division of Hasluck.
