Notes: New notional Country Party seat with no sitting MP. Hughes and Graham (1975) listed Crowther and Kelly as Independents. Crowther advertised himself in the Northern Star as a Labor candidate, and reports in the Casino and Kyogle Courier refer to the Labor affiliations of both candidates, but also makes it clear that Young was the official Labor candidate.
