Country ● History ● Organizations ● Citizens ● Presidents ● Governments ● Congresses ● Parties ● Military
The Congressional elections take place on the 25th day of each month. Only the top 5 parties can make nominations for Congress candidates.
Until October 2008, Congressional Elections were held as part of the general elections which included both Presidential & Congressional Elections and they were held on the 1st of each month. Up to this point, citizens voted for the party list in a certain region, not the individual Congress candidates.
From October 2008 up to September 2012, citizens voted for an individual candidate on a party list in a certain region. As of September 2012, citizens vote for lists of party representatives instead of individual candidates which is valid for a whole country, not a certain region.
The first Congressional elections in Ireland were held on eDay 11 (1 December 2007) when first ever general elections were held in the New World. Unfortunately, not a lot of data is known from this period and the first known results are from July 2009.
