Description

Pu-de-Dôme had six constituencies through to 2010, then at the 2010 Redistricting of French Legislative Constituencies, the department's allocation was reduced to five. Much of the areas of the former sixth constituency was moved into the new second constituency. From 2010, the 2nd constituency of the Puy-de-Dôme covers the northern section of the department including the town of Riom.

At the 2017 election the seat was one of only a few in France that re-elected a Socialist Party deputy.
