History/Trivia
Existing since Federation, this seat is named after Edmund Kennedy, an early explorer of Cape York. It has had only 7 members over the last century, including two father and son teams, Labor's David Riordan (1929-36) and son Bill (1936-66), and the two Bob Katters, Senior (1966-90) and Junior since 1993. Kennedy was won for Labor by Rob Hulls in 1990, but he was defeated in 1993 after one term. These days Hulls is Deputy-Premier and Attorney-General in the Victorian Labor government.
