This page shows results of Canadian federal elections in the central, earlier-development areas of Toronto–in particular, Old Toronto (what was the city of Toronto prior to the 1998 amalgamation), the former Borough of York, most of the former City of East York, and the southern, older portions of the former City of North York, in particular those south of Highway 401 and west of Leslie Street.

Regional profile

Up until 1962, most ridings in inner Toronto were Progressive Conservative strongholds, aside from splits with the Liberals in the 1949 and 1953 elections. Since 1962, Central Toronto, particularly Old Toronto, has generally leaned to the political left. Most elections in the 1960s resulted in a small handful (most often two or three) of New Democratic Party (NDP) seats with the Liberals taking most of the remainder. taking the all of the rest. From 1972 to 1988, the Tories usually split Toronto seats more or less equally with the Liberals (1972, 1979, 1984) or were reduced to about the same number of seats as the NDP (1974, 1980, 1988) with the Grits taking the lion's share. From 1993 to 2004, the Grits held every seat in the former Metro Toronto, in some cases with large margins. The NDP broke through to win a seat in 2004 with Jack Layton, and did slightly better the next two elections.

In 2011, the Liberal vote collapsed under the onslaught of both the Conservatives and the NDP, with the Conservatives taking two uptown ridings, the Liberals retaining two downtown ridings along Yonge Street, and the NDP winning the remaining six. Before then, centre-right parties had been completely shut out in central Toronto since the Tories lost all of their seats in 1993. The region reverted to its post-1990 form in 2015, as a massive surge in Liberal support allowed the Liberals to sweep Toronto.
