Canada election: How are federal electoral districts determined?
The 2019 federal election is underway and all parties have launched campaigns in their drive to be the next government of Canada.
Parliament was dissolved on Sept. 11, which gave the Liberals, the Conservatives, the NDP, the Greens, and the Bloc Quebecois 40 days to try to convince voters they are the right choice.
During elections, we always hear about which ridings we should be watching, or which ones are likely to vote for certain parties. But have you ever stopped to think how those ridings are formed in the first place?

On June 13th Koreans will head to the polls for local elections.
And better late than never,... rival lawmakers managed to pass a re-districting bill on Monday... the 100 day countdown to polling day.

국회, 광역의원 증원·선거구 획정 법안 '지각 처리'
On June 13th Koreans will head to the polls for local elections.
And better late than never,... rival lawmakers managed to pass a re-districting bill on Monday... the 100 day countdown to polling day.
Given this is the first election to be held since President Moon Jae-in took power last year,... watchers say the June election will be a barometer of the administration's popularity.
Kim Min-ji reports.
The National Assembly on Monday passed a long overdue redistricting bill for the June 13th local elections.
By law, the electoral map has to be finalized six months prior to the election -- meaning December 13th last year -- but political wrangling kept lawmakers from having the bill ready on time.
The new map adds a combined 27 more positions for city and provincial councilors -- except for Jeju Special Self-Governing Province and the administrative city of Sejong -- for a total of 690 posts.
As for council members -- there will be 29 more posts for a nationwide total of 2,927.
That's more than 3,600 positions up for grabs,... not counting the key posts of mayor, governor and education superintendent in 17 cities and provinces.
A mini general election is also in the works... as about 10 parliamentary seats are going to be vacant --
with some lawmakers giving up their posts to run for local office plus some who have been stripped of their position.
"With just three months left, the priorities of the rival parties will be to field the best possible candidates in hopes of at least keeping the posts they have now -- or if they're lucky, adding new ones. On top of that, it's the first nationwide poll under the Moon Jae-in administration -- meaning the results will be a barometer of how the public assesses the young government."
Preliminary registration is open for candidates running for mayor, district office chief, education superintendent and local councilor.
Registration for county council members will start in April.
Once registered,... candidates can start campaigning,... open their election offices,... and start sending material to voters in their constituencies.

In the 2000 US presidential election, the Democratic candidate got half a million more votes than the Republican. The Democrat lost. Sixteen years later the same thing happened again. In the US, if you run for president, it does not actually matter how many people in the country vote for you. What matters instead is an arcane system for selecting America’s head of state called the Electoral College.
The Electoral College is the reason the US has something called “swing states,” and it’s the reason those places get to decide the future of the country. It’s the reason presidential candidates almost never campaign in the country’s biggest cities. And more recently, it’s also the reason that Republican candidates have been able to eke out victories in the presidential election without actually getting the most votes.
The Electoral College makes some Americans’ votes more powerful than others. In fact, that’s part of the reason we have it to begin with; in the country’s early years, the Electoral College helped give the votes of Southern Whites more weight than the votes of Northerners. The idea at its core, that certain votes simply matter more than others, is baked into the American tradition. In our elections, it decides the winner.
