A map of all the places you can't vote for a woman on election day

Women make up more than half of the country, yet only 29.3 per cent of parliamentary candidates in this year's general election.

Male is the gender of 70.4 per cent of candidates standing for parliament.

Using data from Democracy Club, indy100 has looked at the parties fielding the highest number of female candidates this election.

Of the 3304 people standing in this June's snap election, 969 identified their gender as female. 2328 identify as male.

Two candidates identify as 'Non-binary, one as female-transgender, one as Man (Mixter), and another as transgender.

Two other candidates are classed as unknown; Baron Badger, standing in Esher and Walton, and The Iconic Arty-Pole standing in Louth and Horncastle - both are for the Official Monster Raving Loony Party.

Reigning Men

Regardless of which party wins, 116 seats will have a male MP on Friday morning.

Indy100 has mapped all of the parliamentary seats where voters do not have the option of voting for a woman to be the MP.

This is the case in 116 seats out of 650.

The only seat in the entirety of the United Kingdom where there is no male candidate standing, is Glasgow Central, a constituency last held by the Scottish National Party.
