Weighing the issue of Longford:
It is bound to be paired with another given the massive deviation that either a single district or two districts would entail.
Longford is bordered by Leitrim, Roscommon, Cavan, and Westmeath.
Leitrim is not an option given the need to preserve single county districts whenever possible.
That leaves Roscommon, Ccavan, and Westmeath.
Roscommon+Longford (3.54) was what I previously thought to be the best pairing but I'm now having second thoughts. Moreover, Roscommon is well fit for 2 by itself.
Westmeath+Longford (4.35) is much more desirable, and doesn't have insane deviation or anything of the sort. They also have a very long border.
Cavan+Longford (3.93) was once an option but Cavan's been done already and in any event they have less in the way of a common border than the other two pairings.
So Longford is now officially paired with Westmeath.
Kildare loses no seats due to Westmeath and Longford together having 4 just like as they did in the original numbers. In case of a Roscommon+Longford pairing you would have seen two counties together having 2 and 1 member respectively ending up with 4, so Kildare would have lost one of its seats to keep the overall number at 160. That is unnecessary in this case.

Darn it. Sorry. I checked the figures and see the mistake. Buncrana isn't in Inishowen rural area so that was counted as part of the last seat, Letterkenny. Obviously, Buncrana is in Inishowen. That requires these changes: Manorcunningham, Newtowncunningham move from East to Letterkenny Burt, Inch Island and Fahan move from Inishowen to East. |

I'm making this official. However I still need to put this on the master-map.
Is it possible for you to furnish an exact list of what electoral districts are in each constituency? I'm having trouble here mapping this, mentally.
Thanks in advance.

Roscommon is pitchfork territory - the RL combination in the 90s was massively unpopular. |

Incidentally, I don't see how Carlow only justifies 1 seat with 57,000 people - 2 seats gives it a higher average population/seat than Offaly.
My calculations are:
Dublin 45: City 19 (11 north of the Liffey, 8 south of it), Fingal 10, South Dublin 9, Dún Laoghaire-Rathdown 7
Rest of Leinster 44: Kildare 7, Meath 7, Wexford 5, Wicklow 5, Louth 4, Kilkenny 3, Laois 3, Offaly 3, Westmeath 3, Carlow 2, Longford 2
Munster 43: Cork 18 (city 4, county 14), Limerick 7, Kerry 5, Tipperary 5, Clare 4 Waterford 4
Connacht 18: Galway 9, Mayo 4, Roscommon 2, Sligo 2, Leitrim 1
Ulster (part) 10: Donegal 5, Cavan 3, Monaghan 2.
45 + 44 + 43 +18 + 10 = 160.

I...completely messed up when transcribing seat allotments from the spreadsheet into this thread. Carlow is supposed to have 2, not 1. Looks like the current Carlow seat is being de-officialized. Thank you very much for catching that. |

I was forced to do this because Naas was too large for me to be able to add much to it. The rural area east of Naas but west of the eastern border of the county was essentially undividable. Also, from the looks of it, barely any part of Newbridge itself is actually in Newbridge rural; Morristownbiller would seem to be more relevant and important in this case. |
