Lyngby nominating district is one of the 92 nominating districts that exists for Danish elections following the 2007 municipal reform.[3][4][5] It consists of Lyngby-Taarbæk Municipality.[6] It was created in 1849[7] as a constituency, and has been a nomination district since 1920, though its boundaries have been changed on many occasions since then.

In general elections, the district tends to vote close to the national result when looking at the voter split between the two blocs.[8]
