Qom (electoral district)

Qom is an electoral district in Iran, encompassing the city of Qom and its surrounding areas. It elects three representatives to the Islamic Consultative Assembly (Majlis).

The boundaries of the Qom electoral district are defined by the administrative boundaries of Qom County. Due to the significant religious importance of Qom as a major center for Shia Islamic scholarship, the political landscape of the electoral district is often influenced by religious figures and institutions. Elections in Qom are therefore closely watched as indicators of religious and political trends within Iran.

Candidates vying for seats in the Majlis from Qom often emphasize their adherence to Islamic principles and their commitment to serving the interests of the city's religious community. Voter turnout in Qom is typically high compared to the national average, reflecting the strong sense of political awareness and engagement among its residents. The results of elections in Qom can often have a ripple effect on national policy, particularly in areas related to religious and cultural affairs.
