Dáil constituencies to be used at the 2024 general election

The 2024 Irish general election is due to be held on Friday, 29 November 2024 to elect the 34th Dáil, the lower house of the Oireachtas, Ireland's parliament. It will elect Teachtaí Dála (TDs) across Dáil constituencies of between 3 and 5 seats.

Under the Electoral (Amendment) Act 2023, there will be 174 TDs at the next election, an increase of 14 seats from the current Dáil, and an increase in the number of constituencies from 39 to 43. This will be the largest Dáil in the history of the state.

The 33rd Dáil must be dissolved by the president at the request of the Taoiseach no later than 19 February 2025. The incumbent Taoiseach is Simon Harris, leader of Fine Gael, who is leading a coalition government of Fianna Fáil, Fine Gael, and the Green Party. He took office as Taoiseach on 9 April 2024, following the resignation of Leo Varadkar. Harris has confirmed that he will seek a dissolution on 8 November, in the hope of an election on 29 November 2024.

## Constituency revision

[edit]

In August 2023, the Electoral Commission proposed a Dáil size of 174 TDs to be elected across 43 Dáil constituencies – an increase of 14 TDs and four constituencies.[1] This was the first review of constituencies carried out by the Commission established under the Electoral Reform Act 2022, where previously they had been carried out by a Constituency Commission. This would be the largest size of the Dáil in the history of the State, surpassing the previous number of 166 TDs from 1981 to 2016.[2] The Electoral (Amendment) Act 2023 implemented the recommendations of the commission.[3]

The preliminary results of the 2022 census showed a population of over 5.1 million, which required a minimum Dáil size of 171 TDs.[4] The Commission was required by law to recommend a size of the Dáil of between 171 and 181 TDs.[5] This range reflects the growth in the population of the state, and the requirement of Article 16.6.2° of the Constitution of Ireland that there be one TD elected for no less than every 20,000 of the population and no more than every 30,000.[6]

## Electoral system

[edit]

Main article: Single transferable vote

Under the system of proportional representation by means of the single transferable vote (PR-STV), each voter may mark all candidates in order of preference. The quota is determined at the first count in each constituency by dividing the number of valid votes by one more than the number of seats (therefore, the quota is 25% in a three-seat constituency, 20% in a four-seat constituency, and 16.67% in a five-seat constituency).

Any candidate reaching or exceeding the quota is elected. If fewer candidates reach the quota than the number of seats to be filled, the last-placed candidate is removed from the count and the next available preferences on those ballot papers are redistributed until a candidate is elected. If such a candidate now has more votes than the quota, their surplus is distributed to remaining candidates in order of ranking on the ballot papers. This is repeated until sufficient candidates have passed the quota to fill the available seats,[7] or where a seat remains to be filled in a constituency and no candidate is capable of achieving a quota as there is nobody left to eliminate for a distribution then the highest place candidate without a quota is deemed elected.

The outgoing Ceann Comhairle (currently Seán Ó Fearghaíl) is due to be returned automatically, unless he announces to the Dáil that he does not wish to be a member of the incoming Dáil.[8]

## Date of election

[edit]

The Taoiseach may advise the president to dissolve the Dáil at any time during the period of the Dáil, which can be refused by the president only where the Taoiseach has ceased to retain the support of a majority in the Dáil. Electoral law provides that the "same Dáil shall not continue for a longer period than five years from the date of its first meeting".[9] When the Dáil is dissolved, the Clerk of the Dáil must issue a writ of election to the returning officer for each constituency.[10] The election must take place on a date set by the Minister for Housing, Local Government and Heritage 18 to 25 days (disregarding any excluded day) after the writs have been issued.[11][12][13]

The 33rd Dáil first met on 20 February 2020, and must be dissolved no later than 19 February 2025. This means that, per a calculation in The Irish Times, the latest date the election can be held is 22 March 2025.[14][15]

For most of 2024, many pundits believed that an autumn election was likely; coalition leaders repeatedly said they would like the government to complete its full term but were open to an early election if the circumstances provided for it.[16] Polling conducted in October 2024 indicated a majority of the public supported an early election to be held in November of the same year.[17]

Following the announcement on 1 October 2024 of the 2025 budget, speculation began in earnest that an election would be called for November or December.[18][19] In late October, Taoiseach Simon Harris said that he expected the election to be held before the end of 2024.[20] On 6 November, Harris confirmed that he would seek a dissolution of the Dáil on 8 November, in the hope of setting a polling date of 29 November 2024.[21]

## Vacancies

[edit]

Four TDs were elected to the European Parliament and took office on 16 July, vacating their seats in the Dáil; a writ to fill the vacancies must be moved within six months of that date, unless there has been a dissolution of the Dáil.[22] One TD, Joe Carey, has resigned from the Dáil.[23]

## Opinion polls

[edit]

Main article: Opinion polling for the 2024 Irish general election

On 1 November, Coimisiún na Meán announced the lifting of the reporting moratorium that had been in place since 1997, and which had prevented election coverage from 14:00 on the day prior to the election until the close of polls. However, the agency also advised broadcasters not to report on opinion polls or exit polls while voting is underway.[54]

Various organisations conduct regular opinion polls to gauge voting intentions. Results of such polls are displayed in this list.

The date range for these opinion polls is from the previous general election, held on 8 February 2020, to the next election, which can be held no later than March 2025.
