constituency
(once / 1492 pages)
n

If you're an elected official, your constituency is the group of people whose interests you were elected to represent.
A constituency can be described in general as the population living in a district, state, or region, but it can also be any smaller section of that population, such as individuals or small groups advocating for specific issues. Your "main constituency" usually refers to the people whose needs you feel most strongly about, or the people who are most loyal to you.
