Transcription

Background

The vacancy was caused by the election of Labour's Ivana Bacik to Dáil Éireann on 8 July 2021 at a by-election in Dublin Bay South.[5] On 10 November 2021, the Seanad passed a motion calling on the clerk of the Seanad to send notice to the Minister for Housing, Local Government and Heritage of the vacancy.[6] The minister was required to make the order for a by-election within six months of this notice.[7]

Election system

Every citizen of Ireland who is at least 18 years old and who has received a degree (other than an honorary degree) or obtained a scholarship from Trinity College Dublin is entitled to be registered as an elector.[8] The electorate of the university is approximately 70,000.[1][9] When a casual vacancy occurs it is filled by a by-election. The procedure at a by-election is the same as that at a general election of university members.[9] Candidates must be proposed and seconded by two registered electors, with the assent of eight other electors.[10] All votes are cast by postal ballot, and are counted using the single transferable vote.

Candidates

Seventeen candidates were nominated.[11] All nominations are non-partisan, with no provision for nomination by parties as there is in Dáil elections. These include, ordered by the date of their declaration:
