THE Chaffey electorate has remained conservative since 1975 and was retained by the Liberal and Country League party and Liberals until 1997, when Karlene Maywald won the seat for the SA Nationals and held it until 2010. 

It covers the Riverland region of Renmark and includes the towns of Berri, Barmera, Loxton and Waikerie.

Ms Maywald held her position until she was defeated in 2010 by Liberal Tim Whetstone, who still holds the seat. 

Mr Whetstone, Labor’s Sim Singh-Malhi, SA Best’s Michelle Campbell, Greens’ candidate Philip Pointer, Dignity Party’s Richard Challis and Australian Conservatives’ Trevor Scott will contest the seat of Chaffey on March 17.
