";s:4:"text";s:6844:"At the 2019 General Election Lake substantially increased both his majority and vote share, with the Liberal Democrats falling to third place. Matthew Lewis Vaughan-Davies, 1st Baron Ystwyth was a Welsh Liberal Party politician. Ceredigion was recreated for the 1997 election as it reverted to its former borders, having lost the part of North Pembrokeshire in boundary changes. The impact of the widening of the franchise and boundary changes was to increase the electorate from 5,026 in 1883 to 12,308 by 1886. [20] The choice of Vaughan Davies was controversial and was strongly opposed by the Aberystwyth-based Cambrian News on the basis of his former association with the Conservative Party. It returned one Member of Parliament (MP) to the House of Commons of the Parliament of the United Kingdom, elected by the first past the post system. In the meantime, Vaughan Davies remained on poor terms with prominent Liberals, including John Gibson, editor of the Cambrian News until his death in 1915. The Ceredigion Welsh Assembly constituency was created with the same boundaries in 1999. [23], By 1914 the Liberal Association was heavily dependent on Vaughan Davies's role as treasurer to keep it going. The Cardigan District of Boroughs was a parliamentary constituency in Wales which returned one Member of Parliament to the House of Commons of the Parliament of the United Kingdom and its predecessors, from 1542 until it was abolished for the 1885 general election. In reality, however, Richards' victory owed much to the support of the powerful Pryse family of Gogerddan. Tories re-take Brecon and Radnorshire from Lib Dems, Plaid Cymru hold Ceredigion - Ben Lake re-elected. As a result, there were two major consequences. [16] He sought re-election as a Liberal Unionist but lost by 9 votes to William Bowen Rowlands, who was the Gladstonian candidate. With a four-way contest involving the Conservatives and Plaid Cymru at the 1964 general election, and a national swing to Labour, Roderic Bowen suffered a precipitate decline in his share of the vote to only 38.4%; he was re-elected with a majority of 2,219 (7.4%) over Labour. The election was important for the bitterness of the contest between the Coalition and Independent factions within the Liberal Party and the deepening of this division within the party as a factor in the long-term decline of Liberalism in Wales. Carmarthen West and South Pembrokeshire (UK Parliament constituency), https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Ceredigion_(Senedd_Cymru_constituency)&oldid=976298950, Senedd Cymru – Welsh Parliament constituencies in the Mid and West Wales electoral region, Creative Commons Attribution-ShareAlike License, This page was last edited on 2 September 2020, at 06:55. [17] The result of the election was largely attributed to the influence of nonconformist ministers over their congregations, although the more effective canvassing of supporters by the Liberal Association was also identified as an important factor. The first vote may be used to vote for a candidate to become the Member of the Senedd for the voter's constituency, elected by the first past the post system. They are all within the Mid and West Wales electoral region. The boundaries of this constituency mirror almost exactly those of the county of Ceredigion. Indeed, the paper went as far as to equate the division with that of 1886. Despite spending heavily and producing a farmer evicted at the 1868 Election on his platform, Jones was heavily defeated by Bowen Rowlands. 41 were either unmarked or it was uncertain who the vote was for. Labour established itself as the main challenger to the Liberals at the 1950 general election in a three-way contest, and the Conservatives opted out of the contest thereafter until 1964. The byelection on 22 September 1932 saw the first three-way fight between the parties, but was won by Owen Evans for the Liberals. [15], In 1886, however, Davies broke with Gladstone over home rule for Ireland in 1886 and a number of his associates such as Robert J. Davies, Cwrtmawr followed him into the Liberal Unionist camp. Ben Lake has been re-elected as the MP for Ceredigion, with a significantly increased majority. For 1983, 1987 and 1992; see Ceredigion and Pembroke North. Note: Smaller parties may be omitted. The Liberals were also caught unprepared for the contest, with Lloyd's candidature kept secret until nomination day. For the 1966 election, Labour selected Elystan Morgan who had been a member of Plaid Cymru until 1964; with a further national swing and Morgan making a credible bid for the Welsh-speaking vote, Labour won the seat by 523 votes. He is best remembered today for founding Barry Docks. He was Liberal MP for the Cardiganshire Division from 1895 until 1921. The demise of Liberal Unionism was confirmed at the 1892 general election when, William Jones, a self-made Birmingham draper who had a small estate in Cardiganshire and was a member of the Cardiganshire County Council ran with the support of Joseph Chamberlain. It is a Dyfed constituency, one of five constituencies covering, and entirely within, the preserved county of Dyfed. Plaid Cymru's Ben Lake held Ceredigion and received praise from Tory rival Amanda Jenner who said it had been a "clean and respectful campaign". The Borough constituency was still dominated by the Loveden-Pryse family based in Gogerddan who were supporters of the Liberals; Pryse Pryse held the seat unopposed from 1818 until his death in 1849, except for the 1841 election when he narrowly retained the seat after a controversial contest. Ben Lake has been re-elected as the MP for Ceredigion, with a significantly increased majority. Lloyd now stated that he would now fight the seat after all and Richard withdrew in his favour. Although Liberal Unionism continued to be championed by a relatively small group, led by the journalist Henry Tobit Evans, who published a newspaper, Y Brython, at Lampeter, most of the leading Liberals who had defected to Davies eventually returned to the fold, in some cases to contest the 1889 County Council elections. A number of possible Asquithian Liberal candidates were approached to contest the seat against Evans and eventually the choice fell upon W. Llewelyn Williams who was sponsored by the Asquithite 'Welsh Liberal Federation'. This election split the Liberal Party in Cardiganshire and the election was hotly contested with almost all the landowners, including those previously regarded as having Liberal sympathies, supporting Davies. Boundaries changed for the 2007 Assembly election. [n 2] Created in 1536, the franchise expanded in the late 19th century and on the enfranchisement of women. Ceredigion is a UK parliament constituency that is represented in the House of Commons by Mark Williams of the Liberal Democrat party.
