Francistown (Botswana constituency)

Francistown was a constituency in North-East District represented by an MP in the National Assembly of Botswana from 1974 to 1994. The constituency, which encompassed Francistown city and the southern part of the North-East District, was created for the 1974 general elections and was dissolved in the 1992 redistribution of boundaries, when it was divided in two new constituencies: Francistown East and Francistown West.

As an urban constituency, Francistown generally tended to vote for opposition parties, but the split of votes between the BPP and the BNF made it easier for the BDP to narrowly win the constituency in the 1984 and 1989 elections.
