List of MPs elected in the 1832 United Kingdom general election (Constituencies J–L)
This is a list of Members of Parliament (MPs) elected to the House of Commons for constituencies with names beginning with the letters J, K, and L at the 1832 United Kingdom general election. This election was the first held after the Great Reform Act of 1832, which significantly altered the electoral landscape of the United Kingdom. The list provides information about the constituency, the elected MP, and, where known, their political affiliation.
The 1832 election saw significant gains for the Whigs, who secured a comfortable majority under the leadership of Lord Grey. This victory was largely attributed to the Reform Act, which enfranchised more of the middle class and redistributed parliamentary seats from smaller, often corrupt, boroughs to larger industrial towns.
The information contained in this list is primarily derived from historical parliamentary records and political analyses of the period. However, due to the nature of historical data, some details may be incomplete or subject to interpretation. It is intended to serve as a starting point for further research into the individuals and constituencies involved in this pivotal election.
Further research into the biographical details of individual MPs, the specific political circumstances of each constituency, and the wider political context of the 1830s is recommended for a comprehensive understanding of this period.
