Election results for Loughborough constituency, 1885–2005. © Jeremy Atherton 2005.

[edit] Notes

The Background colour indicates the party of the sitting MP at any given year.

The election held in 1922 does not appear on this graph. Only one candidate (National Liberal) stood at this election and so no votes were cast, the candidate being elected unopposed. Dashed lines indicate the missing elections.
