The riding (a federal electoral district, which elects one MP) covering Adstock is Mégantic—L’Érable—Lotbinière, and Luc Berthold (Conservative Party of Canada) represents it in the House of Commons. Provincially, Adstock votes in Lotbinière-Frontenac; the open record doesn’t name its MNA (Member of the National Assembly, Québec’s legislature) in the National Assembly of Québec, so the legislature’s own list is linked below. Across Quebec, 44 of the 78 MPs sit with the Liberal Party of Canada. Voters in the municipality choose 6 councillors as well.

- Election results. Ridings changed in 2023: the 2019 and 2021 results are on the old map, and the 2021 vote on today’s map is Elections Canada’s own estimate from polling divisions.
- Which riding. A riding is listed when 5% or more of the place’s 2021 Census residents live in it; the largest share comes first.
- Who holds each seat. A member who resigned or switched parties last week may still show here: the names are Wikidata’s.
- Not on this page. Band councils, and what members did once elected: the open record stops at the vote.
- Council money. Spending by service comes from MAMH’s consolidated 2024 financial report, revenue, debt and reserves from its financial profile, all per resident on MAMH’s population.
- Council size. The council size includes the head of council; the population is the 2021 Census, the whole city’s for a neighbourhood.
