Department of Cantons until March 2015

Division into cantons since March 2015
The new administrative division created by decree of February 21, 2014 [1] entered into force in the first regional (territorial) elections (a new type of election in France). Thus, the single territorial election replaces the two types of voting that have existed so far: regional elections and cantonal elections (elections of general advisers). The first elections of this type, at which both regional advisers (members of the parliaments of the French regions) and general advisers (members of the parliaments of the French departments) [2] were elected, took place in two rounds on March 22 and 29, 2015. This date is officially considered the date of the creation of new cantons and the abolition of parts of the old. Starting from these elections, advisers are elected according to a mixed system (majority and proportional). Voters in each canton elect a Department Council (the new name of the General Council): two councilors of different sexes. This new voting mechanism required the redistribution of communes by cantons, the number of which in the department halved by rounding the total value up to an odd number in accordance with the conditions of the minimum threshold defined by Section 4 of the Law of May 17, 2013 [3] . As a result of the review, the total number of cantons of the Dordogne department in 2015 decreased from 50 to 25 [1] .
Since March 2015, the Dordogne department has included 25 cantons, united in 4 districts:
