1 At the 1944 state election , Communist member Fred Paterson won the seat of Bowen . He therefore became the only member of the party ever to win elected office at state or federal level in Australia, and served two full terms until a redistribution abolished the seat in 1950.
2 On 24 December 1945, the Country member for East Toowoomba , Herbert Yeates , died. Labor candidate Leslie Wood won the resulting by-election on 2 March 1946.
3 On 12 March 1946, the Labor member for Bremer and Premier of Queensland , Frank Cooper , retired. Labor candidate James Donald won the resulting by-election on 10 September 1949.
4 On 30 December 1946, the Country member for Wide Bay , Ernest Clayton , died. No by-election was held due to the proximity of the 1947 state election .
