One of the county constituencies, Farnham and Bordon is split between Hampshire and Surrey

Boundary changes
2024 See 2023 review of Westminster constituencies for further details. For the 2023 review of Westminster constituencies, which redrew the constituency map ahead of the 2024 United Kingdom general election, the Boundary Commission for England opted to combine Hampshire with Berkshire and Surrey as a sub-region of the South East Region. As a result, parts of the constituency of East Hampshire were transferred into a new cross-county (and ‘majority-Surrey’) constituency with Surrey named Farnham and Bordon. In addition, Fareham and Meon Valley were abolished and replaced by the constituencies of Fareham and Waterlooville, and Hamble Valley. The boroughs and districts and unitary authorities constituting the ceremonial county of Hampshire contributed to the new set of Hampshire constituencies as follows: Containing electoral wards from Basingstoke and DeaneBasingstokeEast Hampshire (part) • North East Hampshire (part) • North West Hampshire (part) Containing electoral wards from East Hampshire • East Hampshire (part) • Farnham and Bordon (also includes part in the Surrey borough of Waverley) Containing electoral wards from EastleighEastleigh (part) • Hamble Valley (part) Containing electoral wards from FarehamFareham and Waterlooville (part) • Gosport (part) • Hamble Valley (part) Containing electoral wards from Gosport • Gosport (part) Containing electoral wards from HartAldershot (part) • North East Hampshire (part) Containing electoral wards from Havant • Fareham and Waterlooville (part) • Havant Containing electoral wards from New ForestNew Forest EastNew Forest West Containing electoral wards from PortsmouthPortsmouth NorthPortsmouth South Containing electoral wards from Rushmoor • Aldershot (part) Containing electoral wards from SouthamptonRomsey and Southampton North (part) • Southampton ItchenSouthampton Test Containing electoral wards from Test Valley • Eastleigh (part) • North West Hampshire (part) • Romsey and Southampton North (part) Containing electoral wards from Winchester • Fareham and Waterlooville (part) • Hamble Valley (part) • Winchester 2010 Under the fifth periodic review of Westminster constituencies, the Boundary Commission for England decided to increase the number of seats which covered Hampshire from 17 to 18, with the creation of Meon Valley. As a consequence of resulting boundary changes, Romsey was renamed Romsey and Southampton North. The Aldershot and Basingstoke seats, more predominantly urban than previously defined, were redesignated as borough constituencies. ==Results history==
