coastcommunitynews.com.auI can’t reliably provide latest news right now because I don’t currently have access to live browsing for this request. However, here are the most recent, directly relevant items I can see from the information available to me:
Gosford district: recent election-related info
- The state electoral district of Gosford had notable results featuring Labor’s Liesl Tesch leading on both first-preference and two-party-preferred in the most recently shown dataset.[1]
- A 2017 Gosford state by-election (triggered by Kathy Smith’s resignation due to ill health) resulted in Labor’s Liesl Tesch winning first preference and two-party-preferred.[3]
Local government context (Central Coast / Gosford wards)
- For Central Coast Council local government elections, there’s reporting indicating the major parties dominated first-preference voting across Gosford wards in 2024 coverage (with details discussed for Gosford East and Gosford West).[2]
- The NSW elections site has ward-specific pages for Gosford East Ward and Gosford West Ward that are likely where the most up-to-date “who’s elected / results” information appears.[5][7]
Quick question (so I can target the “latest news” you want)
When you say “Electoral district of Gosford,” do you mean:
- the NSW state electoral district, or
- the Central Coast Council wards (Gosford East / Gosford West)?
Reply with which one, and (if you can) a date range like “past week” or “past month,” and I’ll summarize the most current items I can find.
