In politics, a bellwether (often, incorrectly, bellweather or bellwhether) is a region whose political tendencies match in microcosm what occurs in a wider area. For example, a bellwether constituency in a Westminster-style election is one which tends to swings back and forth between parties, generally electing the same party as which wins the overall vote.

Thus, a bellwether election might indicate how other elections could end up.
