In 1967, Davis was elected to the New South Wales Legislative Council as a Liberal member. She served until 15 September 1978, when she resigned just prior to the state election. Due to the reduction in the Council's size, Davis was not included on the Coalition's ticket, but was instead endorsed to contest the Legislative Assembly seat of Waverley. She was defeated by the sitting Labor member, Syd Einfeld. (en) |
