The federal electorate of Whitlam, located in New South Wales, is named in honor of Gough Whitlam, Australia's 21st Prime Minister. Established in 2016, it covers an area of approximately 9,000 square kilometers, encompassing parts of the Southern Highlands, the Illawarra region, and the Wingecarribee Shire. Key towns within the electorate include Mittagong, Bowral, and Moss Vale. Whitlam is characterized by its mix of rural and suburban communities, with a focus on agriculture, tourism, and small businesses. Politically, it has been a competitive seat, often reflecting the broader national swing between major parties, making it a key battleground in federal elections.
