Southern Region Male Candidates vs. Female Candidates

An analysis of Male Candidates and Female Candidates for the National Elections will be posted on this blog Starting with Southern Region.

Southern Region in Total has 24 seats be contested, and there is a Total Number of 895 candidates contesting, 837 are Male and 58 Female.

The Total number of Regional Seats is 6, with 214 Candidates contesting, 191 Male and 23 female

The Total Open Seats is 18, with 681 Candidates, 646 Male and 35 Female.


Based on Graphs Below;

Although most of the the graphs depict dominance of male candidates,  one of the interesting things to note is that; there are more women candidates in Southern Contesting Regional Seats which may indicate the desire of women to serve in their own electorate and province, rather than being involved in politics at a National Level. (This post is purely for information purposes only and reader is encouraged to draw own conlusions from graphs).




Data and Graphs per electorate for Southern is available and maybe posted depending on number of requests recieved.
