Lijst van kiesdistricten in Ierland
In de Grondwet van de Republiek Ierland is vastgelegd dat leden voor Dáil Éireann worden gekozen door middel van een districtenstelsel. Voor elk district moeten ten minste drie leden worden gekozen, de grondwet zelf geeft geen maximum, maar thans is vijf te kiezen zetels het maximum. De grondwet schrijft verder voor dat de grenzen van de kiesdistricten ten minste een maal per twaalf jaar beoordeeld en zo nodig gewijzigd dienen te worden.
