  • The Brindabella electorate is one of the three electorates for the Australian Capital Territory Legislative Assembly. It was created in 1995, when the three-electorate, Hare-Clark electoral system was first introduced for the Australian Capital Territory (ACT). "Brindabella" is derived from an indigenous word meaning "two kangaroo rats" and refers to the mountain range to the south and west of the ACT. It has five seats, and is the largest of the electorates, consisting of the large part of the ACT south of the Murrumbidgee River, although this region is sparsely inhabited. From 1995 to 2008 it contained the Canberra district of Tuggeranong, excluding Hume, and the Woden Valley suburbs of Chifley, Pearce and Torrens. As of a 2008 boundary re-distribution by the Australian Capital Territory Electoral Commission Brindabella now also covers the Woden Valley suburb of Farrer.
