Provincial electoral divisions (also known as constituencies or ridings) in Manitoba are currently single-member ridings that each elect one member to the Legislative Assembly of Manitoba . The individual who is elected thereby becomes a Member of the Legislative Assembly (MLA).[1]
Electoral boundaries are reviewed every 10 years by the Manitoba Electoral Divisions Boundaries Commission . The current provincial electoral boundaries were established in December 2018 and went into effect for the 42nd general election , held on September 10, 2019.[2]
Manitoba today has 57 electoral divisions.[1] [3]
