Leightonfield is an electoral district of the Enderronian Parliament in New Surrey Prefecture, first contested at the 1915 general election. It replaced the district of Brunswick, after the city was renamed in 1914. It encompasses the bulk of the regional city of Leightonfield, in particular its central business district and inner suburbs.
The sitting member, since the 2018 election, is Mary Castilleja, a member of the Social Democratic Party.
==History==
Leightonfield was a bellwether seat in its early years. It was won by the party that won government at every election from its creation in 1915 to 1950. Since then, it has become increasingly safe for the Social Democrats as the city became an important transport hub and brought in blue collar workers. The seat has been held near-continuously by the Social Democrats since 1970, with the only interruption being former Leightonfield mayor Norm Anderson claiming it for the Liberal Party from 2005 to 2010.
