The 3rd constituency of Charente-Maritime (French: Troisième circonscription de la Charente-Maritime) is one of five electoral districts in the department of Charente-Maritime, each of which returns one deputy to the French National Assembly in elections using the two-round system, with a run-off if no candidate receives more than 50% of the vote in the first round.

Description

The constituency is made up of 10 whole (pre-2105) cantons – those of Aulnay, Burie, Loulay, Matha, Saintes-Nord, Saintes-Ouest, Saint-Hilaire-de-Villefranche, Saint-Jean-d'Angély, Saint-Savinien, and Tonnay-Boutonne – plus the major part of the canton of Saintes-Est (all communes except those of Colombiers and La Jard).

At the time of the 1999 census (which was the basis for the most recent redrawing of constituency boundaries, carried out in 2010) the 3rd constituency had a total population of 100,186.
