Ever since Lindsay was first contested at the 1984 federal election the seat had always elected a member of the party that won the election − a pattern known as a bellwether seat. However, Lindsay's bellwether run ended at the 2016 federal election when Labor's Emma Husar defeated one-term Liberal Fiona Scott.
