The 8th constituency of the Pas-de-Calais is a French legislative constituency in the Pas-de-Calais département.
Description
[edit]Pas-de-Calais' 8th constituency is based around the town of Saint-Omer, close to the border with Nord.
Politically the seat bears a close resemblance to others in Pas-de-Calais as it strongly supported the left. This constituency elected Michel Lefait in 1997 after a brief tenure by the conservative Rally for the Republic who captured the seat in the landslide victory at the 1993 elections.
