Pre-election pendulum for the 2023 New South Wales state election
The following is the pre-election pendulum for the 2023 New South Wales state election. It is based on notional margins calculated by the ABC's Antony Green.[1] Members in italics will not contest the election as a candidate for the seat they currently hold or its replacement. However, the current member for Holsworthy Melanie Gibbons will move to contest the seat of Kiama.[2] By-elections were held in some seats during this term of Parliament that changed their margins. See the footnotes for details.
