1959 Redistribution
The historic 1959 redistribution of the provincial ridings of Calgary and Edmonton marked the transition to standardize First Past the Post across the province. From 1926 to 1959 Calgary and Edmonton, elected members with Single Transferable Vote. The rest of the ridings in the province had the option of how to count votes during that period. The redistribution created seven ridings in Calgary of which two currently exist.
This transition was done in part to standardize the electoral system across the province and because Calgary and Edmonton were becoming two large to be a single riding.
The other six ridings were Calgary Bowness, Calgary West, Calgary Glenmore, Calgary Centre, Calgary North East, Calgary North.
