Election results

2011

2016 In 2014, Tynwald approved recommendations from the Boundary Review Commission which saw the reform of the Island's electoral boundaries.

Under the new system, the Island was divided into 12 constituencies based on population, with each area represented by two members of the House of Keys.

As a result Cregeen's former constituency of Malew and Santon was abolished, with Santon becoming part of the constituency of Middle and Malew becoming part of the newly formed Arbory, Castletown and Malew.
