Samuel John "Sam" Duluk is an Australian politician representing the South Australian House of Assembly seat of Davenport for the South Australian Division of the Liberal Party of Australia since the 2015 Davenport by-election.[1]
Duluk was born in the Victorian town of Mildura, and is descended from post-war migrants from Poland.[2] He was raised in Adelaide and educated at Marryatville High School, then graduated with a Bachelor of Commerce (Accounting) from the University of Adelaide, working as an accountant in the banking industry. He was state president of the South Australian Young Liberal Movement.[3]
Duluk won the seat despite a five percent two-party swing, turning the historically safe seat of Davenport in to a two-party marginal seat for the first time.[4]
