The electoral district of Yuroke was an electoral district of the Victorian Legislative Assembly. It was situated in the outer northern suburbs of Melbourne and was created in a redistribution before the 2002 state election, replacing the former electorate of Tullamarine.
Included within its boundaries were Attwood, Craigieburn, Greenvale, Kalkallo, Mickleham and Yuroke, as well as parts of Roxburgh Park, Somerton, and Westmeadows.
It was considered to be a very safe Labor Party seat.
The seat was abolished by the Electoral Boundaries Commission ahead of the 2022 election and replaced by the electoral districts of Kalkallo and Greenvale.[1]
