Galway North was a parliamentary constituency represented in Dáil Éireann, the lower house of the Irish parliament or Oireachtas from 1948 to 1961. The constituency elected 3 deputies (Teachtaí Dála, commonly known as TDs) to the Dáil, on the system of proportional representation by means of the single transferable vote (PR-STV).
History The constituency was created under the Electoral (Amendment) Act 1947 for the 1948 general election to Dáil Éireann. It was abolished under the Electoral (Amendment) Act 1961, when the three existing Galway constituencies were replaced by the two new constituencies of Galway East and Galway West.
Boundaries The administrative county of Galway except the portion thereof which was comprised in the County Constituencies of Galway West and Galway South.
