Nagano At-large district (House of Councillors)

Nagano At-large district (House of Councillors)

Nagano At-large district (長野県選挙区, Nagano-ken senkyo-ku) is a multi-member constituency of the House of Councillors in the Diet of Japan. It consists of Nagano Prefecture and elects four Councillors, two every three years by single non-transferable vote (SNTV) for six-year terms.

The Councillors currently representing Nagano are:

  • Yūichirō Hata (DPJ, Hata group; term ends in 2013), son of representative and former prime minister Tsutomu Hata and grandson of representative Bushirō Hata,
  • Hiromi Yoshida (LDP, Nukaga faction; term ends in 2013),
  • Kenta Wakabayashi (LDP; term ends in 2016), son and successor of councillor and former agriculture minister Masatoshi Wakabayashi, and
  • Toshimi Kitazawa (DPJ, Hata group; term ends in 2016), son of former Nagano assemblyman Sadakazu (?, 貞一) Kitazawa.

Like most two-member districts Nagano often splits seats between the major parties; in the first decades of the 1955 System, a Socialist candidate usually received the highest vote.
