Blackall was a Legislative Assembly electorate in the state of Queensland from 1873 to 1888.[1]
Blackall was established in 1873 as a single-member constituency by the 1872 Electoral Districts Act and covered the rural surrounding areas of Rockhampton from the coast to the ranges. It was abolished in the 1887 redistribution, being split up into two new electorates, Electoral district of Fitzroy and Electoral district of Rockhampton North, and the existing Electoral district of Normanby.[1]
