Elizabeth Constable (born 2 December 1943) is a former Independent member of the Western Australian Legislative Assembly, firstly representing the electorate of Floreat after winning it at a 1991 by-election following the resignation of Andrew Mensaros. After the abolition of Floreat in a redistribution in 1994, Constable was elected to the electorate of Churchlands in 1996 then re-elected in 2001 and 2005.〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=Extract from the Western Australian Parliamentary Handbook )〕 In September 2011 she became the longest-serving female State Parliamentarian in WA, breaking the record set by Florence Cardell-Oliver who served from February 1936 to April 1956. Constable retired at the 2013 election. ==Background== Constable was once a member of the Liberal Party before becoming an independent.〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=ABC - Stateline Transcript - Barnett denies sinister campaign strategy )〕 She left the Liberal Party when it became clear that the favoured candidate of power-broker Noel Crichton-Browne would be given preselection for the safe seat of Floreat in 1991 at her expense. Constable contested the seat as a conservative independent and won easily with 49% of the primary vote.〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=The Poll Bludger - By-election bloodbaths )〕〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=Suffrage to Sufferance - 100 years of Women in Parliament )〕 Constable followed most of her constituents into Churchlands in 1996, and was comfortably reelected at every election since then. She held the seat with a majority of 23 percent, making it the safest seat in the state.
