He attended Geelong High School and Geelong College, where he studied law. He practised as a barrister and solicitor from 1927. On 10 December 1927 he married Gertrude Leggo, with whom he had three children. During World War II he served in New Guinea and held the rank of lance sergeant. He was a senior partner in his law firm from around 1937, and in 1940 he was elected to the Victorian Legislative Council as a Country Party member for South Western Province. In 1947, McDonald and Robert Rankin resigned from the Country Party after disagreements with the party leadership.[1] McDonald spent a year as an independent before joining the Liberal Party in 1948. He was Minister of Labour from 1948 to 1950, and added the State Development portfolio in 1949. McDonald retired in 1952, and died in Newtown in 1957.[2] References1. ^{{cite news |url=http://nla.gov.au/nla.news-article206044718 |title=MEMBERS LEAVE COUNTRY PARTY. |newspaper=The Age (Melbourne, Vic. : 1854 - 1954) |location=Melbourne, Vic. |date=3 July 1947 |accessdate=19 December 2015 |page=3 |publisher=National Library of Australia}} {{s-start}}{{s-par|au-vic-lc}}{{s-bef|before=John Jones}}{{s-ttl|title=Member for South Western | years=1940–1952 | alongside=Gordon McArthur}}{{s-aft|after=Don Ferguson}}{{s-end}}{{DEFAULTSORT:McDonald, Allan Elliott}}2. ^{{cite web | last = Parliament of Victoria | first = | authorlink = Parliament of Victoria | coauthors = | title = McDonald, Allan Elliott | work = re-member: a database of all Victorian MPs since 1851 | publisher = Parliament of Victoria | date = 2001 | url = http://www.parliament.vic.gov.au/re-member/bioregfull.cfm?mid=1265 | format = | doi = | accessdate = 19 December 2015}} 6 : 1903 births|1957 deaths|National Party of Australia members of the Parliament of Victoria|Liberal Party of Australia members of the Parliament of Victoria|Members of the Victorian Legislative Council|20th-century Australian politicians |
