The Fukui at-large district ( Japanese: 福井県全県区, Hepburn: Fukui-ken Zenken-ku) was a multi-member electoral district represented in the House of Representatives in the National Diet of Japan. From 1947 until 1993, it elected four representatives from Fukui Prefecture.
In the 1947 Japanese general election, three of the four seats were won by the Democratic Party. [1] In 1949 all seats were won by the Democratic Party and Democratic Liberal Party, both of which would later merge into the Liberal Party. [1] After that party won all the seats in the 1952 Japanese general election, there would later be a trend in which conservative parties, including the Liberal Democratic Party, would win at least half of the district's seats. [1] Koshiro Ueki, who was part of the cabinet as Minister of Justice (1960–1962; 1971) and Minister of Finance (1972), was elected to the district in the 1952 election and would later be re-elected eight more times, before losing in the 1976 Japanese general election. [1] Due to the 1994 Japanese electoral reform, the at-large district was replaced with three single-member districts starting with the 1996 Japanese general election. [2]
At the time the Public Offices Election Law came into law in 1950, the district encompassed the entirely of Fukui Prefecture. [3]
