It is a seat that has had been represented by four different political parties and two independents in the last three decades. Between 1971 and 1977 it was held by the Liberal Party's Gilbert Alison. The seat then fell into Labor hands for two terms before being re-gained by Alison, now running for the National Party. As the rest of Queensland swung strongly to Labor in 1989, Maryborough nudged its way into the Labor fold, remaining a marginal seat for sitting MP Bob Dollin until his defeat in 1998 by One Nation's John Kingston, a victory achieved on National Party preferences. Kingston was one of the first One Nation MPs to leave the party and contested the 2001 election as an Independent, getting just enough National Party preferences to overhaul the Labor Party's lead on first preferences. He resigned from parliament early in 2003 due to ill health, being succeeded by another Independent in Chris Foley, also clawing his way ahead of Labor on National Party preferences. Foley's task of re-election in 2004 was made easier when the Labor Party had internal disputes in pre-selection and the National Party candidate withdrew his nomination at the last minute over an unresolved domestic dispute. In 2006 Foley romped to victory with two-thirds of the first preference vote. While forced to preferences in 2009, Foley still easily outpolled his Labor and LNP opponents. 2012 BALLOT PAPER (5 Candidates) Candidate Name BURTT, Ezra Australian Labor Party DALE, Gordon The Australian Party MADDERN, Anne FOLEY, Chris CLARIDGE, Garry The Greens Ezra Burtt Australian Labor Party Burtt is a workplace trainer for a leading logistics provider.

After narrowly losing National Party pre-selection, Foley won Maryborough as an Independent at the April 2003 Maryborough by-election following the resignation of John Kingston. Foley has kept his word not to re-join the National Party, easily re-elected in 2004 when the endorsed National Party candidate had to withdraw his nomination at the last moment and romping home with 69.6% of the first prefence vote in 2006. Foley was forced to preferences in 2009 but was still easily re-elected.
