The county of Hertfordshire in England is divided into eleven parliamentary electoral districts. These districts are the result of patronage in the Hertfordshire county elections, which were dominated by the Cecil Earls of Salisbury. Ten seats were divided between old and well-connected local families, such as the Carey, Lyttons of Knebworth, and the Botelers. The remaining members, Sir Ralph Coningsby, Sir Charles Morrison and Sir Thomas Dacres, inherited competent property in the county.
Contests were not unheard of during Elizabeth's government, but they were generally avoided during Stuart's initial period and, as a result, the size of the electorate is unknown.
