Electoral district of Sjoberg

Sjoberg (/ˈʃoʊbɜːrg/) is an electoral district of the Enderronian Parliament in Wentworth Metropolis. It was created in the 1990 redistribution and first contested at the federal election later that year, replacing the district of Wellington. Located in outer southeastern Wentworth, the seat is named after Allen Sjoberg, the 21st Prime Minister of Enderron.

The sitting member, since the 1998 federal election, is Paul Wagner, a member of the Liberal Party of Enderron. He previously represented the seat from 1990 to 1994, as well as Wellington from 1978 to 1982. He is currently the earliest elected member of the current parliament, and the last parliamentary survivor of the Rhinehart, Watt and Thorpe Governments.

History
Sjoberg was first proclaimed in 1990. It is anchored in the outskirts of Wentworth. Its original status as a hybrid urban-rural electorate made it fairly safe on paper for the United Party. Paul Wagner, previously the member for Wellington, returned to politics and became Sjoberg's inaugural member. The seat was lost to the Social Democratic Party amidst its landslide victory and the United Party's major collapse in the 1994 election. In the following election, Wagner was re-elected to the seat, now representing the Conservatives.

Since the 2000s, rapid population growth in the region has caused profound demographic change which has favoured the Social Democrats. Despite these changes, the Liberal Party and its predecessors have held Sjoberg for all but one term since its creation, largely due to the personal popularity of Wagner.
