Karburgh is an electoral district of the Enderronian Parliament in New Colorado Prefecture, first contested at the 1962 federal election. It is named after the city of Karburgh, and covers the eponymous city's central business district and southern suburbs.
The sitting member, since the 2006 federal election, is Alex Banuelos, a member of the Social Democratic Party.
==History==
Prior to 1962, New Colorado was allotted a single at-large seat in the Enderronian Parliament. At the 1962 redistribution, an increasing population resulted in abolition of that seat and the creation of two electorates, Karburgh and Fairfield, based around the two main population centres in the prefecture. In its original form, Karburgh included a large swath of rural territory in eastern New Colorado beyond the urban limits of the city it was named after. However, this incarnation was short-lived, as a rural-based seat, Dover, was created in 1966. The Karburgh electorate has continued to shrink in size over the years, and has been cut back to the Karburgh city centre and the southern suburbs since the creation of Charlestown in 1994.
Karburgh has been held continuously by the Social Democratic Party since its creation.
