Columns: County | Voters ( 1800 ) | Times contested | Dominant interests | Comments
Herefordshire | 3,500 | 8 | Cornewall , Cotterell , Harley | The Whig Cornewalls and the Tory Harleys dominated the county until 1802 , when the Tory Cotterells entered the fray . Thereafter the Tories usually controlled the representation | Hertfordshire | 4,000 | 13 | Brand , Plumer , Seabright | Being close to London , Hertfordshire saw regular contests . Despite the presence of the Tory magnate the Marquess of Salisbury , the county families were mostly Whigs and after 1803 they fended off the Tories at every election | Huntingdonshire | 1,700 | 9 | Montague | The Tory Montague family , led by the Earl of Sandwich , was the dominant force in this small county , although sometimes rival members of the same family gave the Sandwich interest trouble . Only in 1831 did the Whigs manage to win a seat | Kent | 9,000 | 14 | Knatchbull | The Tory Knatchbulls were the leading county family , but the county 's size , wealth and proximity to London made it impossible to control and there were frequent contests , often between East Kent and West Kent interests . The government , through the Admiralty 's influence in the Kent ports , also had a big say | Lancashire | 8,000 | 5 | Blackburn , Stanley | The Stanleys , led by the Earl of Derby ( at this time a Whig ) dominated the county . One seat was nearly always held by a Stanley relative , the other by one of the leading Tory families | Leicestershire | 6,000 | 7 | Keck , Manners , Palmer | The representation was divided between the Tory Manners family , led by the Duke of Rutland , and local families , who were also mostly Tories
