From 1988 till 2020, the GRC was contested in every election in a two way fight except for the 1997 general election when it was a walkover for the PAP.^[1] In both the 2015 and 2020 general elections, the PAP had more votes shares in Tampines GRC than PAP's national vote share with 72.06 percent against 69.9 percent and 66.41 percent against 61.2 percent respectively.^[1]

The changes were intended to keep the number of voters in the GRC consistent while still electing five MPs.^[4][5]
