Division of Bourke


 

The Division of Bourke was an Australian Electoral Division in Victoria. The division was created in 1901 and abolished in 1949. It was named for Sir Richard Bourke, who was Governor of New South Wales at the time of the founding of Melbourne. It was based in the northern suburbs of Melbourne, including the suburbs of Brunswick and Coburg. After 1910 it was a safe seat for the Australian Labor Party, but was lost to an independent member in 1946.
