!align="right" colspan=7|1 The byelection was called due to Armstrong's resignation upon appointment to the Executive Council (cabinet) on December 23, 1872. This byelection was one of a series held to confirm appointments to the Executive Council, which was the old parliamentary convention. As this byelection writ was filled by acclamation, no polling day was required and the seat was filled within two weeks. The stated date is the date the return of writs was received by the Chief Electoral Officer.

In 1890 changes in population and boundaries led to the riding's renaming as Westminster
, with the following year that riding being subdivided into Westminster-Chilliwhack
, Westminster-Delta
, Westminster-Dewdney
and Westminster-Richmond
, which were to become a few elections later the Chilliwhack
(later Chilliwack
) Delta
, and Richmond
ridings. The core of the New Westminster urban area (then still separate from Vancouver's) continued to be represented by New Westminster City
until 1916, when that riding was redistrubuted as a one-member seat from its maximum of three, and in the process it was given the old rural riding's name, "New Westminster".
