Piraeus B
Piraeus B (Greek: Β΄ Πειραιώς) is a Greek election constituency that includes the suburbs of Piraeus. Concretely, this constituency includes the municipalities of Keratsini-Drapetsona, Nikaia-Agios Ioannis Rentis, Korydallos, Perama and Salamina. It was created for 1974 Greek parliament elections and currently elects 8 members of parliament.[1] It is one of five electoral constituencies of the Attica region and former prefecture, along with Piraeus A, Athens A and Athens B, and Remainder of Attica. It was established in 1958, primarily to separate the heavily left-voting suburbs of Piraeus from the rest of the municipality and diminish the electoral power of the United Democratic Left.
