Votes and shares are first preferences, not final-count transfers. Seats are mandates returned at the election, including unopposed returns and the outgoing Ceann Comhairle where applicable. No votes are invented for uncontested seats. Historical reported turnout can refer to the eligible electorate in contested constituencies, rather than all registered voters. The electorate, franchise and constituency boundaries changed over time. Colours are a display palette. This is the all-Ireland result of the United Kingdom election, the constitutional precursor to the First Dáil. Only Sinn Féin MPs convened the revolutionary Dáil; the other elected MPs did not take their seats there. The table is not a count of members who actually attended the Dáil.
