CHANGES : Wexford-Wicklow is a new constituency encompassing much of South Wicklow and North Wexford.
Approximately 60% of the votes were cast in the Wexford constituency and 40% were cast in the Wicklow constituency. The three largest settlements (Arklow, Gorey and Courtown) are situated along the east coast. None of the ten TDs elected in the Wicklow and Wexford constituencies in 2020 are resident in the constituency. The 2020 figures cited below are for Wexford from where the majority of the new constituency comes from.
