Electorates

An electorate is a specific geographic area where eligible voters reside, allowing them to elect a representative, often to a legislative body, such as a parliament or congress. Each electorate has a defined number of voters, and the boundaries can change due to factors like population shifts. During elections, candidates campaign to gain votes from the residents of their designated electorate. This system ensures that different regions have a voice in government, reflecting the interests and needs of their communities.
