Electoral district of Shirakawa Central

Shirakawa Central (also known by its Japanese name Shirakawa-Chūō) is an electoral district of the Enderronian Parliament in Tojima Prefecture, first contested at the 1950 federal election. It contains the Shirakawa central business district and the city's inner suburbs.

The sitting member, since the 2018 election, is Yukiko Hirata, a member of the Social Democratic Party.

History
Shirakawa Central was created in the 1950 redistribution, in which Tojima gained two seats and the electorate of Shirakawa was divided into Shirakawa Central and Shirakawa South.

Percentage-wise, Shirakawa Central has one of the highest populations of Japanese Enderronians in the country; indeed, it holds the unique distinction of being the only electorate to have always been represented by Japanese Enderronians, and currently holds the longest streak of electing non-white members to Parliament. The seat was held by the pro-multiculturalism New Democratic Party from its creation in 1950 to 1962, and then by the Social Democratic Party to the current day.
