: На мой непросвещенный взгляд, "constituency" = "полноправные граждане, которые могут пойти 'голосовать' в своем 'избирательном округе', а могут и не пойти (если им это не надо)".

Current usage
Nowadays, at-large majoritarian representation is used for national elections only in the Senate of the Philippines, while it is sometimes still used for local elections organised on non-partisan bases.
Residual usage in several multi-member constituencies is reduced to the election of the Electoral college of the President of the United States. Block voting is also used to elect a part of the assemblies in the regional elections in Italy and France: in these cases, the majoritarian quota is one of two parts of an additional member system.
