The Alyn and Deeside seat is being expanded to include part of the Delyn constituency for the 2024 General Election. The former Alyn and Deeside seat was won by Labour, Delyn turned Conservative in 2019 and Rob Roberts represented it as an independent after losing the Conservative whip in 2021.

The boundaries of all but one Welsh seat have changed ahead of the 2024 election, only Ynys Mon (the island of Anglesey) remains untouched, all others have seen changes which could impact the results on election night. You can read the background to the changes here.

Instead of 40 constituencies, there are now 32 in Wales and the idea behind it is to make all Westminster constituencies the same size.

Other than the name of the Democratic candidate, “Trump +1” is a result that could have been from any other Times/Siena poll before President Joe Biden’s disastrous debate. Sign up for
