Dauphin (provincial electoral district)

Dauphin is a provincial electoral division in the Canadian province of Manitoba.

It was originally created in 1881 with the expansion of the province's western boundary, eliminated in 1886, re-established in 1892, and finally abolished in 1999.

Dauphin-Roblin was largely replaced by a new Dauphin riding in the 2008 redistribution, expanding to include Ste.

Dauphin was initially centred on the community of Dauphin, Manitoba, though it now encompasses much rural territory as well.

It is located in the province's mid-northern region, close to the provincial border with Saskatchewan.
