Cavan–Monaghan is a parliamentary constituency represented in Dáil Éireann, the lower house of the Irish parliament or Oireachtas. The constituency elects 5 deputies (Teachtaí Dála, commonly known as TDs) on the system of proportional representation by means of the single transferable vote (PR-STV).

History and boundaries[]

It was created under the terms of the Electoral (Amendment) Act 1974 and was first used at the 1977 general election.[1]

The constituency includes the entire area of both County Cavan and County Monaghan, taking in Cavan town, Monaghan town, Clones, Cootehill, Belturbet, Bailieborough, Castleblayney and Carrickmacross.[2] At the 2016 general election, 36 electoral divisions in the west of County Cavan were transferred to the Sligo–Leitrim constituency and Cavan–Monaghan became a 4-seat constituency.[3] This was reversed by the Electoral (Amendment) (Dáil Constituencies) Act 2017, which provided that at the next Irish general election, which took place in 2020, the west of County Cavan would be reunited with the rest of the Cavan–Monaghan constituency, with the addition of territory from County Meath to recreate a 5-seat constituency.[4]

Constituency profile[]

Cavan–Monaghan is predominately rural with 75% of the population living outside the main towns. Manufacturing, construction and agriculture are the largest sectors of the local economy.[13] In the 2000s there was an influx of people moving to south-east Cavan from Dublin, benefiting from the low house prices and good transport links to the capital.

Due to its proximity to the border the constituency has historically been strongly Republican; hunger striker Kieran Doherty won a seat in the 1981 general election as an Anti H-Block candidate. In recent elections, the constituency has seen mainly a three-way fight between Fine Gael, Sinn Féin and Fianna Fáil, with the Labour Party traditionally polling poorly.
