Kitaoka (/kiːtəˈoʊkə/ kee-tuh-oh-kuh) is an electoral district of the Enderronian Parliament in Tojima Prefecture, first contested at the 1982 federal election. It is centred on the Shirakawa suburb of Kitaoka, and includes a large portion of the city's northeastern suburbs.
The sitting member, since the 2010 federal election, is James Tsuji, a member of the Social Democratic Party.
==History==
Kitaoka was created at the 1982 redistribution following significant population growth in Shirakawa's northern suburbs. In its current form, it includes a narrow panhandle that stretches west to border the electorate of Kawayama, and a large portion of Shirakawa's North Shore region, as well as areas further inland. Kitaoka is traditionally a marginal seat, though it generally tilts towards the Social Democrats.
