An electoral division is a specific geographic area designated for the purpose of electing representatives in a legislative body. Each division typically corresponds to a single representative, ensuring that the interests of local constituents are represented in government. The boundaries of these divisions can vary based on population, geography, and administrative considerations. In many countries, such as Canada and Australia, electoral divisions are established to facilitate fair elections. The process of creating and adjusting these divisions is often overseen by an independent body to ensure impartiality and to reflect changes in population over time.
