proposed change

"Until the 2007 general election, Tipperary North was a rare example of a bellwether constituency in Ireland; since 1982, it had returned two Fianna Fáil deputies out of three when that party achieved government and returned only one when the party failed to do so."

I think this should be changed. As from 2007 Lowry supported the FF/GP/PD government so was in effect the 2nd government TD maintaining the bell-weather effect.

Constituency Boundary Change

This constituency is now officially known as "North Tipperary / South Offaly". Should this page not be edited in order to reflect the change?

--109.78.122.77 (talk) 00:48, 16 February 2011 (UTC) No, you are incorrect, its still Tipperary North. See the 2009 act

'Bellwether' constituency

I revised this sentence to refer to a longer passage of time - "from 1969 onward, with the exception of February 1982, two of the three deputies it returned went on to support the resulting government". The only occasion for which this is not obviously correct is the 2007 general election. The lede of the article on that election says that Ahern's government was "initially supported by four Independent TDs", and Lowry might well have been among those, but the main body of the article does not appear to refer to this, and the cited source appears to have been removed from the Irish Times database. Any further information anyone can supply would be valuable. Harfarhs (talk) 21:19, 24 June 2019 (UTC)
