In the late 1970s and 1980s Laval replicated the global Quebec results, with Liberal sweeps in 1979 and 1980 and a Progressive Conservative upsurge in 1984 and 1988. The Liberals were able to retain the Laval-des-Rapides seat in 1984 thanks to star candidate Raymond Garneau although at the time the riding had half of its territory on the island of Montreal in the Ahuntsic-Cartierville neighborhood. Having to chose another riding due to the 1987 Redistributions, Raymond Garneau choose to run again in the Ahunstic riding in 1988 and was defeated by the PC.
Throughout the 1990s and 2000s, the City of Laval has been a battleground between the Liberals and the Bloc Québécois. The NDP experienced an "orange wave" that swept through Quebec in 2011, with that party taking all of Laval. In 2015, however, the Liberals swept Laval, undoubtedly buoyed by Justin Trudeau representing a riding in this region. They maintained their sweep in 2019 and 2021.
The region is largely unaffected by the 2022 Redistribution with only a part of Vimy in the Pont-Viau neighborhood transferred to Alfred-Pellan.[1]

For the first time since its creation, the Conservative Party achieved a second place in Laval, in the Marc-Aurèle-Fortin district, albeit far behind the Bloc québécois. Up until the 2021 elections this was the only time the modern Conservative Party obtained a better showing than third place in Laval.
