At the time, New Brunswick operated on electoral districts with fixed boundaries, and the number of members to which they were entitled varied based upon their respective population. From 1926 to 1967, each of the province's 15 counties was a district. The cities of Saint John and Moncton were districts in their own rights. These districts elected members using the bloc voting system.
Under this redistribution, all six of New Brunswick's cities became electoral districts, and Saint John County was split into two districts, creating a total of 22 ridings. For the first time since 1946, this created several districts that returned only one member using the first past the post system.
