History

Summary of results

The 2015 result gave the seat the 19th-smallest majority of Labour's 232 seats by percentage of majority. The Bridgend constituency was created in 1983 from parts of the seats of Ogmore and Aberavon. To date, it has mostly voted for candidates from the Labour Party at general elections. The exceptions have been the Conservatives winning the seat at the 1983 "landslide" election, and in 2019. An absolute Labour majority occurred in Bridgend in three successive elections: 1992, 1997, and 2001, as well as in 2017.

Other opposition parties

Since 2001, inclusive, two non-Labour, non-Conservative candidates at each election have kept their deposits, winning greater than or equal to 5% of the vote.

Turnout

Turnout has ranged between a high of 80.5%, in 1992, and a low of 59.2% in 2005.
