History
Seven Hills was established for the first time in 1981 but it was abolished in 1991. It was recreated from 2015 as a result of the 2013 redistribution. It is named after and including the Sydney suburb of Seven Hills. Seven Hills' new boundaries largely consisted of areas from the abolished district of Toongabbie; however, the transfer of strong Labor voting areas to Blacktown and Prospect, and the addition of strong Liberal areas from Baulkham Hills significantly altered the political composition of the electorate, changing the estimated margin from an 0.3% advantage for Labor to a 8.8% advantage for the Liberals. The sitting member for Toongabbie was former Labor Premier Nathan Rees, who retired at the 2015 election.
