Between 1976 and 1996 Graig was an electoral ward to Taff-Ely Borough Council, electing two district councillors.

Graig subsequently became a ward to Rhondda Cynon Taf County Borough Council, electing one county councillor.

The change was effective from the 2022 Rhondda Cynon Taf County Borough Council election.
