Groningen (electoral district)
.jpg)
Groningen was an electoral district of the House of Representatives in the Netherlands from 1848 to 1918.
Background
Groningen was created as a single-member district in 1848 and briefly became a two-member district in 1888 before being reverted to a single-member district in 1897. It was named after the city of Groningen. In the first period, the municipalities of Groningen and Haren were consistently part of the district, while it also contained the municipalities of Adorp, Hoogezand, Hoogkerk, Noorddijk, Sappemeer, Winsum and Ten Boer at various points. As a two-member district, Groningen included the municipalities of Groningen, Haren, Hoogezand, Noorddijk, Ten Boer, Bedum and Slochteren. In 1897, it was reconstituted as an exclusively urban single-member district containing only the municipality of Groningen; all other municipalities were moved to the newly created district of Hoogezand.[1][2][3]
Throughout its first iteration, Groningen's population increased slightly from 21,459 in 1848 to 23,424 in 1878. In 1888, after the district's considerable enlargement, the district had a population of 90,573. After it was reduced again to include only the municipality of Groningen, its population increased from 66,537 in 1897 to 74,613 to 1909. From 1848 to 1869, the district's religious makeup was fairly stable, with around 72–75% of the population being Dutch Reformed, 13–15% being Roman Catholic, 1–5% being Gereformeerd, and another 9–11 % belonging to other denominations. From 1878 onward, the share of people identifying with the Dutch Reformed Church fell to 46% in 1909, while the share of people identifying as Gereformeerd rose to 14%, and the "others" grouping rose to 28%, which included 17% not belonging to any denomination.[4][2]
The district of Groningen was abolished upon the introduction of party-list proportional representation in 1918.

Groningen was a progressive district which elected liberals throughout its existence. Early representatives of the district include Berend Wichers and Steven Blaupot ten Cate, as well as the prominent statesman Johan Rudolph Thorbecke briefly in 1866. Groningen's longest-serving member was the independent liberal Samuel van Houten, who represented the district from 1869 until 1894, when he was unseated by the more progressive Hendrik Lodewijk Drucker, later parliamentary leader of the Free-thinking Democratic League. Van Houten was subsequently appointed interior minister in the Röell cabinet. In 1901, Drucker failed to send a letter of acceptance of his election in time, thus triggering a by-election in which he was re-elected unopposed. After Drucker's election to the Senate in 1913, the district elected Dirk Bos, but he had also been elected for the district of Winschoten, and opted to represent the latter, thus triggering another by-election in Groningen.
