- Electoral district of Beaudesert
Beaudesert is an electoral district in the Queensland Legislative Assembly located in Queensland, Australia.
Beaudesert encompasses rural and semi-urban regions located to the south of the Brisbane metropolitan area. Major communities located within this electoral include Beaudesert, Boonah, Aratula, Jimboomba, Tamborine, Canungra, and Rathdowney.
The seat was created at the 1991 redistribution largely from the territory of the abolished seat of Fassifern. It has been a safe seat for the National Party of Australia ever since its creation, with incumbent Fassifern MP Kev Lingard winning the seat at the 1992 state election and being comfortably re-elected ever since. Lingard has announced he will not contest the seat at the next election. [http://www.abc.net.au/news/stories/2008/01/28/2147954.htm]
