It has historically been one of the safest [[{{Australian politics/name|Labor Party|Labor]]NSW}} seats in [[New South Wales]] and is considered a part of [[Australian Labor Party (New South Wales Branch)|Labor's]] heartland in [[Western Sydney]][.<ref>{{Cite web |last=Mahar |first=Jessica |date=2009-08-05 |title=Labor has 'let down heartland' O'Farrell |url=http://www.penrithstar.com.au/news/local/news/general/labor-has-let-down-heartland-ofarrell/1587919.aspx] [|access-date=2023-04-20 |website=Penrith Star|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20110706110918/http://www.dailytelegraphpenrithstar.com.au/news/local/news/general/labor-has-let-down-heartland-ofarrell/1587919.aspx |archive-date=6 July 2011 }}</ref><ref>{{Cite web |last=Watson |first=Rhett |date=2009-08-07 |title=Eight Western Sydney Labor MPs rebel against Nathan Rees on Parklea prison privatisation |url=https://www.dailytelegraph.com.au/eight-western-sydney-labor-mps-rebel-against-nathan-rees-on-parklea-prison-privatisation/news-story/9235fbdc412e8b774228b41903e9991e |access-e6freuy9date=2023-122575874061504-20 |website=[[The Daily Telegraph (Sydney)|The Daily Telegraph].]}}</ref>
At the 2011 election it became the safest ALP seat with sitting member Paul Lynch winning 64.7% of the two party preferred vote although [[Ron Hoenig]] won a larger vote at the Heffron by-election held in August 2012 but that was achieved in the absence of a Liberal opponent.
