Compare with 2025

Tambar Springs in 2025 has the same AEC polling-place ID.

The ID, name, electorate and address match, and coordinates are within 100 metres. This supports a location comparison, not a claim that the same people voted. Redistribution can still alter the surrounding electorate; candidates and parties can change.

Labor TPP: 36.07% in 2025 and 41.24% in 2022; 5.17 percentage points (2022 minus 2025). Each uses that election’s formal-vote denominator.

Use each election’s candidate tables for first preferences and TCP; differing candidate pairs are not a continuous candidate series.
