Background

On 27 July 2005, New South Wales Premier Bob Carr announced his resignation as Premier. Carr had been leader of the New South Wales Labor Party since 1988. He led the party to government at the 1995 state election and his government was subsequently re-elected at the 1999 and 2003 elections. Carr's resignation took effect on 4 August 2005. At roughly 10 years 4 months, he served the longest continuous service of any Premier of New South Wales.[1]

Carr also resigned his parliamentary seat, triggering the by-election.
