Grenada's 15 Constituencies, Explained
Grenada elects its Parliament from 15 single-member constituencies, but those 15 seats don't map cleanly onto Grenada's parishes — some parishes hold five seats, others just one. Here's how the structure actually works.
Parishes vs. constituencies
Grenada is divided into 7 parishes (6 on the main island, plus Carriacou & Petite Martinique), but parishes are a geographic and administrative division — they're not the units used for parliamentary representation. For elections, the country is instead divided into 15 constituencies, and several of the larger or more populous parishes are split into multiple constituencies so that each seat represents a roughly comparable number of voters.
How the 15 seats break down by parish
Saint George, home to the capital, is the most subdivided parish by far — it alone accounts for a third of the country's constituencies. Smaller or more sparsely populated parishes get a single constituency each.
Why Saint George is split five ways
Saint George parish contains Grenada's capital and is by far the most densely populated part of the country, so it's divided into five constituencies: Saint George North East, Saint George North West, Saint George South, Saint George South East, and the Town of Saint George itself. Splitting it this way keeps each individual constituency's voter base closer in size to constituencies in less densely populated parishes, rather than giving the capital a single seat representing a disproportionately large share of the electorate.
Carriacou & Petite Martinique: one seat, two islands
Unlike every other constituency, which sits entirely on the Grenadian mainland, Carriacou & Petite Martinique combines two separate islands into a single constituency. It's the only seat in Grenada's Parliament that represents people who don't live on the same landmass as their fellow constituents — a reflection of how small Carriacou and Petite Martinique's combined population is relative to the rest of the country.
Where to find your constituency
Constituency boundaries are drawn from villages and streets, not parish lines, so it's not always obvious which constituency you live in just from knowing your parish. The fastest way to check is to search the electoral roll directly, or look up your village on the Division Finder — both will tell you your exact constituency and polling division.
