The seat of Prospect was abolished and replaced by the new seat of Enfield for the 1956 election.
The current Prospect booths are marginal Labor, with the suburb represented by the marginal Liberal seat of Adelaide up to Regency Road, with the small northern remainder of Prospect represented by the fairly safe Labor seat of Enfield.
