NI Parliamentary electorate at the beginning of 2024.
2024 will definitely be a general election year for the UK, and will be the first election fought on the new constituency boundaries. I have had a look at how many voters are currently registered for Parliamentary elections in Northern Ireland and compared that to the register at the time of December 2019 election. Unfortunately the electoral office is still posting updates of the register based on the previous boundaries, however this is useful for a comparison to 2019 and for showing how necessary the boundary changes are. I had hoped to map the wards onto the new boundaries, but it seems some wards have also changed making an accurate comparison impossible at this stage. There are currently 1,349,229 registered voters in Northern Ireland for a parliamentary election, this is an increase of 4.1% or 52,922 voters since December 2019. Based on the previous constituency boundaries the largest constituency would have been Upper Bann with 86,920 voters compared to just 67,276 voter
