Single-member districts

Single-member districts for the House of Councillors often play a crucial role for the overall outcome of a regular election as they can be swung completely with relatively little change in popular vote whereas the SNTV multi-member districts and the proportional seats are usually shared between ruling camp and opposition. In the 2007 Councillors election, the single-member districts were won by 6 members from the then ruling Liberal Democratic Party (LDP) and 23 members of the DPJ-led opposition. In 2010, the LDP picked up seven seats in single-member districts.
