Combined Election Results 2016 - Dáil Éireann + Northern Ireland Assembly

Slydice

So I got bored..

I saw there was Election Results from 2016 for both Dáil Éireann and the Northern Ireland Assembly. Wondered if I could get the combined numbers for both together.

I went to these wikipedia articles and tried to get the numbers from them:

• https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Irish_general_election,_2016
• https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Northern_Ireland_Assembly_election,_2016

So I tried to make a pie chart and table.

Here's the pie chart:


Here's the table:

What you need now is a survey, North and South asking Northerners who they would vote for down South and vice-versa.

I'd say the SDLP would hoover up in any theoretical poll of who people in the Republic would vote for up North. Voting unionist wouldn't be an option for most poeple, and they wouldnt stomach Sinn Féin.

Mabe a few more alliance or PBP votes too, but not as many.

Why would you do the combined vote when only 1 party stands in both jurisdictions?

Does not make sense

Three - Green and PBP also. Both have MLAs also.

Not sure what happened to the tiny numbers (may have been 1 even) of DL councillors when they merged with Labour but they're definitely gone.
