Albury has generally been considered as a heartland seat for the conservative parties, and the Liberal Party of Australia and its predecessors have held the seat for almost all of its history. While there have been several instances of the Australian Labor Party breaking the conservative hold on the seat, these have typically been short-lived and have only occurred at the peak of a popular government. There has only been one major exception to this: former Albury mayor Harold Mair won the seat for Labor in 1978 and held it for a decade before being swept away in the landslide Labor defeat of 1988. The Albury electorate has since reverted to its traditional tendencies - the current Liberal member, Greg Aplin, was returned with more than 60% of the vote in 2003, and Labor finished fourth behind Aplin and two independents. It is thus likely that the main potential concern for Liberal candidates in Albury in the immediate future will come from rural independent candidates.
