North Andros is a future parliamentary constituency that will be represented in the House of Assembly of the Bahamas. It will elect one member of parliament (MP) using the first-past-the-post voting system for the first time at the 2026 Bahamian general election.[1]
History
In October 2025, Bahamian media reported that the Boundaries Commission was considering creating new constituencies by dividing the existing North Andros and Berry Islands seat, citing the size of its electorate.[2] Leonardo Lightbourne will stand as a candidate in 2026.[3][4]
