Sources and method
- Electors are from the Q2 2021 roll (gazetted 26 August 2021), the same figures used across this site; earlier elections use the same source’s past election statistics.
- This page compares numbers of electors only; it makes no judgement on whether the boundaries are fair. Size differences are often linked to factors such as sparsely populated rural areas.
- Seats and electors for the 13th election are as published by SPR.
