1936 by-election
Following the death of Fine Gael TD Osmond Esmonde, a by-election was held on 17 August 1936. The seat was won by the Fianna Fáil candidate Denis Allen, reaching the quota on the first count. Subsequent counts occurred because the distribution of remaining votes could have saved another candidate their election deposit.
