The 4th constituency of the Haute-Savoie (French: Quatrième circonscription de la Haute-Savoie) is a French legislative constituency in the Haute-Savoie département. Like the other 576 French constituencies, it elects one MP using the first past the post election system with a run-off.
Description
The 4th constituency of Haute-Savoie covers a swathe of the western border of the department, including the town of Annemasse close to the Swiss border.
The seat has a strong tendency towards the centre right and in 2017 was one of only two constituencies in Haute-Savoie that returned an LR deputy. In 2012 Virginie Duby-Muller succeeded fellow Union for a Popular Movement member Claude Birraux who had served as the area's representative since 1988.
