Division of Evans

The Division of Evans was an Australian Electoral Division in New South Wales. The division was created in 1949[citation needed] and abolished in 1977. It was named for George Evans, an early explorer.[citation needed] It was located in the inner western suburbs of Sydney, including Ashfield, Croydon and Drummoyne. It was a marginal seat, held by both the Australian Labor Party and the Liberal Party.

Prior to its abolition in 1977 and except in 1961, Evans was a bellwether seat that was won by the party that formed government afterwards.
