It is a sign of Vancouver's rapid growth that by 1890 there were over 300 electors, by 1900 there were 15,000, by 1903 over 25,000 votes cast; prior to 1885 the population of the waterside village of Granville, B.I. (Burrard Inlet, a postal address shared by Moodyville, New Brighton and Barnet) had been in the range of 300.

Political Geography and History

Vancouver City was a multi seat district, electing from two to six MLAs, before being dismantled in 1928. Each voter could cast as many votes as there were seats to fill in the district.Electoral History of BC, 1871-1986, p. 545 In most of the elections from 1903, when party labels were first used formally, to 1920, the
Block Voting Block voting or bloc voting refers to electoral systems in which multiple candidates are elected at once and a group (voting bloc) of voters can force the system to elect only their preferred candidates. Block voting may be used at large (in a si ...
system in use meant that one party took all of the city's seats. But in most cases, that one party took less than half the votes. From 1903 to 1912, the Conservative party took all of the Vancouver City seats each time, with the most popular Conservative candidate taking less than 11 percent of votes cast. In 1916 and 1920, the Liberal party took five of Vancouver City's six seats, with a Conservatives taking one seat. In 1924, the Liberal party took five of Vancouver City's six seats, with a "Provincial Party" candidate taking one seat. In 1928, the Conservative party took all six of Vancouver City's seats. Following the 1928 election, Vancouver City was converted into four new districts, electing a total of 9 MLAs.
