1986 Scullin by-election
1
A by-election was held for the Australian House of Representatives seat of Scullin in Victoria (Australia) on 8 February 1986. This was triggered by the resignation of Labor Party MP and Speaker Harry Jenkins to become Australian Ambassador to Spain. Scullin had always been a very safe Labor seat, and the election was won easily by Labor candidate Harry Jenkins (the former member's son), despite a swing to the Liberal Party.
