Electoral division of Fannie Bay
- Electoral division of Fannie Bay
Fannie Bay is an electoral division of the Legislative Assembly in Australia's Northern Territory. It is located in the inner northern suburbs of Darwin, with its current boundaries including the suburbs of Fannie Bay (from which it derives its name), Parap, East Point, The Narrows, The Gardens and parts of Stuart Park. It was first created in 1974, and is an entirely urban electorate, covering an area of 12.66 km². There were 4696 people enrolled in the electorate as of June 2005.
Fannie Bay has been an exception in Northern Territory politics, as it has tended to be neither marginal or safe for either party, with incumbent members of both parties having managed to easily hold the electorate for several years. This was illustrated in 1995, when Country Liberal Party Chief Minister Marshall Perron resigned, only to be replaced by the Australian Labor Party's Clare Martin - who six years later herself became Chief Minister while still representing the electorate.
