Labor candidate Cressida O'Hanlon was elected the new member, defeating Liberal candidate Anna Finizio. O'Hanlon is the first Labor member to represent the seat, and the only member other than Marshall to have represented the seat since its creation in 2014. It is the first instance of a governing party gaining a seat in a by-election from the Opposition in South Australia in over a century.
