Division of Corangamite Totally Explained

Everything about The Division Of Corangamite totally explained

The Division of Corangamite is an Australian Electoral Division in Victoria. The division was created in 1900 and was one of the original 75 divisions contested at the first federal election. It is named for Lake Corangamite.
It is located in the Western District of Victoria and has always included the regional centre of Colac, but today most of its voters live in the southern suburbs of Geelong or coastal communities such as Anglesea and Queenscliff.
Until the 1930s it was a marginal seat which was occasionally won by the Australian Labor Party. In 1918 it was the first seat won by the newly formed Country Party. It was generally considered a safe seat for the Liberal Party of Australia from the 1940s to the late 1990s, but became increasingly less safe due to demographic changes. This resulted in the seat falling to Labor at the 2007 federal election for the first time since 1929.
