Northeast, Electoral constituency in northern Iceland
Northeast electoral district extends across the northern and eastern regions of Iceland, encompassing major municipalities including Akureyri and Fjarðabyggð.
The Northeast constituency was established in 2000 through a consolidation of former Northern and Eastern districts, with first elections held in 2003.
The district maintains strong democratic participation, with over 45,000 registered voters participating in regular parliamentary elections to select their representatives.
The constituency holds 10 parliamentary seats in the Althing, with one equalization seat allocated based on national voting proportions.
Electoral weight in Northeast provides residents with greater voting power compared to Reykjavik districts due to population distribution across Iceland.
