Market towns of Buskerud county

The Market towns of Buskerud county was an electoral district in Norway used for parliamentary elections. It included the market towns of Drammen, Hønefoss, and Kongsberg in Buskerud county.

The district was created for the 1921 election when Norway changed from single-member constituencies to multi-member constituencies in 1919.

In 1953 the district was abolished. From then on, each county became a single electoral district, and the towns were treated as part of their counties for elections.
