General Election 2024: Every candidate standing standing in the North West
Voters go to the polls on 4 July to cast their ballots for the General Election.
The North West is set to play a crucial role in determining the outcome of the vote, with some of the tiniest parliamentary majorities in the country.
It is a region where even a small shift of opinion by voters could have big consequences on polling day.
Below is a table of those who are standing in each constituency, as well as a map of the North West constituencies and the results of the 2019 General Election - or most recent by-election.
Boundary changes since the election in 2019 mean some constituencies have changed, with some abolished completely to make way for new ones.
The North West now has 72 constituencies, down from 75 in 2019, and had the last election been fought on these new boundaries it is calculated Labour would have won 41 seats and the Conservatives 31, with the Speaker – Sir Lindsay Hoyle – holding his seat of Chorley.
To find out which constituency you are in, enter your postcode into the Government's online tool.
Those wanting to vote must have ID with them, however, not all types of photo ID are accepted.
A list of eligible forms of ID are listed on the Government website.
The interactive map below shows the political composition of the North West constituencies before parliament was dissolved in May 2024. Some constituencies have been newly created and therefore no data is available.
