Map of Richmond upon Thames council area, which overlaps a lot with Richmond Park Constituency. I'm not quite sure which is which, but a ward is a convenient maximum area to leaflet whether for an MP or councillor. I don't know how many days' work it is to leaflet all those letterboxes, but not many people would want to do more.
The page is labelled page 63 (add six to get the real page 69) headed "Kingston upon Thames and Richmond upon Thames, existing constituencies".
Wards have about 6,500 voters each - there is an estimate on the table for each one.
There are ward maps printed rather fuzzy and sideways but I think they can be made-out. I am in East Sheen Ward. I had trouble printing this first time.
Googling "open streetmap" and "constituencies" got me to
http://boundaries.spatialanalysis.co.uk/ which is also slow to load but looks promising.
http://boundaryassistant.org/elections/local/localelections2014.htm?t=lb&y=2002;2006;2010;2014&b=1 is much quicker to load and matches an outline map - with no streets - to poll results last time. Apparently the winning party candidates got over 2,000 votes and runners-up get 750 so it would take a very good leaflet to change enough peoples' minds. The candidate who was interested in social care but stood down got more votes than the unknown name who replaced her.
