Helena was an electoral district of the Legislative Assembly in the Australian state of Western Australia from 1983 to 1996. Based in the outer eastern suburbs of Perth, the district was first contested at the 1983 state election. It was won by Labor candidate Gordon Hill, who was at the time member for the abolished Swan. Hill resigned the seat in 1994, triggering a by-election that resulted in Labor losing the seat to Liberal candidate Rhonda Parker. The ALP's loss of the seat was a key factor that saw the end of Ian Taylor's short stint as ALP leader. rdf:langString
