In politics, the term is more often applied in the passive sense to describe a geographic region of which the political tendencies match in microcosm those of a wider area, such that the result of an election in the former region might be understood to predict reliably that in the latter. In a Westminster-style election, for example, a constituency, the control of which tends frequently to change, often mirrors in its popular vote in any given election, that which occurs on a national scale; in the United Kingdom, Basildon is often advanced as one such region. In the United States, Missouri, often referred to as the Missouri bellwether, is considered as such a region, having produced, since 1904, the same result as did the national election in every election to be President of the United States save that of 1956.
