St. John’s South is a provincial electoral district for the House of Assembly of Newfoundland and Labrador, Canada. As of 2011, there are 7,923 eligible voters living within the district.

Historically working class in nature, St. John's South includes increasingly prosperous residential pockets. The district covers the traditional "west end" of St. John's (now geographically closer to the centre, due to city expansion), the western section of the downtown core and the south side of the harbour to Cape Spear, including the neighbourhood of Shea Heights. In the 2007 redistribution, four per cent of Kilbride was added.

Members of the House of Assembly

The district has elected the following Members of the House of Assembly:

  • Dennis O'Keefe who ran as the Liberal candidate is not the same Dennis O'Keefe that is currently Mayor of St. John's.
