History
The electoral district was created in 2001, due to redistricting process. It was a merger of two constituencies: Sejm Constituency no. 33 (no. 5 until 1993), which covered the area of the then-Piotrków Voivodeship, and the parts of Sejm Constituency no. 41 (created in 1993), which covered the area of the then-Skierniewice Voivodeship. This constituency is considered as one of the Law and Justice's safest districts, as they won every election there since 2005. Since 2015, PiS has maintained the majority of seats in this district.
