Division of Braddon
The Division of Braddon is an Australian Electoral Division in Tasmania. The division was created in 1955 (it was previously called Darwin), and is named for Sir Edward Braddon, a Premier of Tasmania and one of Tasmania's five original federal MPs. It is located in the north-western part of Tasmania, and now includes the towns of Burnie, Devonport, Ulverstone and Wynyard. Braddon has usually been a marginal seat, changing hands between the Australian Labor Party and the Liberal Party.
