Electoral results for the district of Oxley

Oxley, an electoral district of the Legislative Assembly in the Australian state of New South Wales, has had two incarnations, the first from 1920, returning 3 members until 1927 and was abolished in 1988. The second from 1991 until the present.

1920 appointment
George Briner died on 9 September 1920. Between 1920 and 1927 the Legislative Assembly was elected using a form of proportional representation with multi-member seats and a single transferable vote (modified Hare-Clark). There was confusion at the time as to the process to be used to fill the vacancy. When George Beeby resigned on 9 August 1920, in accordance with the practice prior to 1920, the Speaker of the Legislative Assembly issued a writ of election requiring a by-election to be conducted, however the Chief Electoral Officer said he couldn't do so under then law at the time and that a by-election would be contrary to the principle of proportional representation. The vacancies were left unfilled until the Parliament passed the Parliamentary Elections (Casual Vacancies) Act on 10 December 1920, so that casual vacancies were filled by the next unsuccessful candidate on the incumbent member's party list. Theodore Hill was the unsuccessful candidate at the 1920 election and took his seat on 15 December 1920.
