1907 New South Wales state election The 1907 New South Wales state election involved 90 electoral districts returning one member each. The election was conducted on the basis of a simple majority or first-past-the-post voting system.[1]

In this election, 7 members did not stand for re-election,[lower-alpha 1] in 11 electorates the winning candidate received less than 50% of the votes,[lower-alpha 2] while 5 were uncontested.[lower-alpha 3]

There were 23 seats that elected a member from a different party, while a further 5 seats where the member retained the seat but changed from the Progressive Party to the Liberal Reform Party, continuing the demise of the Progressive Party, from a high of 42 seats at the 1901 election.[2] Four months before the election the party had negotiated a coalition agreement with the Liberal Reform Party however this was rejected by a vote of parliamentary members.[3] The party leader Thomas Waddell (Belubula) resigned and joined the Liberal Reform Party,[4] and was followed by John McFarlane (The Clarence), Brinsley Hall (The Hawkesbury), John Gillies (Maitland) and John Perry (b 1845) (The Richmond). Of the remaining 10 former Progressive Party members, a further 5 lost their seats. For a comprehensive list, see 1907 New South Wales state election § Changing seats.
