the constituency was re-created as a county constituency in 1983 from parts of the seats of christchurch and lymington, north dorset and new forest. it has since 1983 seen strong conservative majorities, with the exception of a 1993 by-election caused by the death of robert adley when it was won by diana maddock a liberal democrat. the conservatives regained the seat at the next general election in 1997, despite their landslide defeat nationally and chris chope has retained it ever since. as of 2017, it is the second strongest conservative seat in terms of voteshare (69.7%) and strongest in terms of majority (49.6%) in the country, although 2017 also saw labour come second in the seat for the first time in history, having historically been far weaker than the liberal democrats and, in 2015, ukip.
