Tōkyō 8th district (東京都第8区, Tōkyō-to dai-hachiku or simply 東京8区, Tōkyō-hachiku) is a single-member constituency of the House of Representatives in the national Diet of Japan. It is located in the most populous part of Tōkyō Metropolis, and covers the metropolis's Suginami Ward. The district was created in 1994 as part of an electoral reform effort in the Japanese House of Representatives, and was first implemented in the 1996 general election.
As of 2015, this district was home to 365,194 constituents.[2]
Before a series of electoral reforms in 1994, Suginami Ward had been part of Tokyo 4th district, where five representatives had been elected by single non-transferable vote.
The only representative for the 8th district since its creation has been Nobuteru Ishihara (LDP, currently Ishihara faction), the son of former environment minister and Governor of Tokyo Shintarō Ishihara (JRP, formerly LDP, Ishihara, then Fukuda faction).
