1973 New Brunswick electoral redistribution

(redirected from New Brunswick electoral redistribution, 1973)

The New Brunswick electoral redistribution of 1973 was the most radical redistribution of electoral districts in the history of New Brunswick, Canada. Under this redistribution, New Brunswick changed from a bloc voting electoral system to first past the post. As the number of members per district had been re-evaluated as recently as 1967, the number of members was not changed, and multi-member districts were simply subdivided to form single-member districts.
