Constituencies

Abstract

The article deals with one of the most difficult electoral problems. The problem is the location of constituency boundaries, and the filling many places in single-place constituencies. The result of an election in single-place constituencies is effected not only by the opinions of the voters, but also by an unacceptable extend in the location of constituency boundaries. The possible extremes of distortion is due to boundaries between a large number of constituencies. If there are more than two parties and election is by relative majority, the possible extremes of distortion are enlarged.
