The 2024 Irish General Election was held on 29 November 2024. Fianna Fáil and Fine Gael both made gains, with Sinn Féin losing seats compared to their 2020 result.

How does proportional representation work in Ireland?

Ireland uses Proportional Representation with Single Transferable Vote (PR-STV). Voters rank candidates in order of preference. Each constituency elects 3–5 TDs. A quota is calculated by dividing total valid votes by seats plus one. Candidates who reach the quota are elected; surplus votes transfer to next preferences, and the lowest-placed candidate is eliminated each round until all seats are filled.

What was voter turnout in the 2024 Irish General Election?

National voter turnout in the 2024 Irish General Election was approximately 60%, broadly in line with recent Irish general elections. Turnout varied by constituency. The IrelandInsights elections map shows turnout by constituency for both 2024 and 2020, allowing direct comparison.

How many seats are in the Dáil?

The 34th Dáil has 174 seats, increased from 160 in the 33rd Dáil. The increase reflects Ireland's population growth as recorded in Census 2022. Constituency boundaries were revised by the Electoral Commission, with Dublin gaining seats to reflect its growing population.
