History
West Coast–Jurong West GRC was created for the 2025 general election after West Coast GRC absorbed the Jurong Spring and Taman Jurong divisions of Jurong GRC and was renamed. As part of the redrawing of the GRC, Telok Blangah and Dover estates were shifted to Tanjong Pagar GRC, and Harbourfront and Sentosa estates to Radin Mas Single Member Constituency (SMC).[2]
The PAP stood for reelection with a team led by Desmond Lee against the reconfigured A-team of the Progress Singapore Party (PSP), which, having narrowly lost in West Coast GRC, had received both of the non-constituency MP (NCMP) seats offered after the 2020 general election. The PAP won an improved 60% of the vote in the new GRC; the PSP, in contrast, lost its NCMP seats.[3]
