The seat became vacant earlier this week after Liberal Gary Keating quit politics, saying the hours and travel that come with the job would have a negative impact on his health and family.
Keating’s resignation leaves the Liberals with 26 seats.
The Progressive Conservatives have 21 members and the Greens have one.
