Dudley North was a United Kingdom House of Commons constituency[n 1] from 1997 until 2024.[n 2]
Campaigns in the seat have resulted in a minimum of 30% of votes at each election consistently for the same two parties' choice for candidate, and the next highest-placed share having fluctuated between 5.5% and 24% of the vote since its creation: for differing parties, the highest placed of these having been the UK Independence Party. The seat attracted seven candidates in 1997 and 2015 and four in 2001.
By the decision of the 2023 Periodic Review of Westminster constituencies, the seat was abolished and replaced by the new Dudley constituency, retaining current boundaries but expanded to include the Dudley Borough ward of Brockmoor and Pensnett from Dudley South.[2]
