Notes

Votes are first-count (first-preference) votes under the Single Transferable Vote, summed from candidates to parties. Later-count transfers are not recorded.
The 13 electoral divisions are the finest published grain. Ballot boxes are mixed within each division before counting, so no locality or polling-station results exist.
Geometry is Missing for all years. Division boundaries are redrawn before each election and are published only as street-level descriptions, not as maps or polygons.
total_votes is the division's published valid vote, and turnout_reg is valid votes over the revised electoral register, so it runs a few points below the official turnout, which counts all ballots cast.
