The Irish general election of 1933 was held on 24 January 1933. The newly elected members of the 8th Dáil assembled at Leinster House on 8 February when the new President of the Executive Council and Executive Council of the Irish Free State were appointed. Fianna Fáil retained power, though fell one seat short of an overall majority.
Contents
The general election took place in 30 parliamentary constituencies throughout the Irish Free State for 153 seats in the lower house of parliament, Dáil Éireann.
Result
Excluding the Ceann Comhairle (speaker), Fianna Fáil, had won exactly half the seats and formed a government with support from the Labour Party, eventually winning enough by-elections to govern without Labour Party support.
