Constituency

/kənˈstɪtʃuənsi/ noun

A group of voters in a particular area who elect a representative; more broadly, any group that supports or is served by an organization or leader.

From Latin 'constituere' meaning 'to set up, establish,' from 'con-' (together) and 'statuere' (to set, place). Originally referred to the act of establishing something, later specifically to electoral districts.
