释义 |
The 1986 Strangford by-election was one of the fifteen 1986 Northern Ireland by-elections held on 23 January 1986, to fill vacancies in the Parliament of the United Kingdom caused by the resignation in December 1985 of all sitting Unionist Members of Parliament (MPs). The MPs, from the Ulster Unionist Party, Democratic Unionist Party and Ulster Popular Unionist Party, did this to highlight their opposition to the Anglo-Irish Agreement. Each of their parties agreed not to contest seats previously held by the others, and each outgoing MP stood for re-election. {{Election box begin | title=Strangford by-election, 1986[1]}}{{Election box winning candidate with party link| |party = Ulster Unionist Party |candidate = John David Taylor |votes = 32,627 |percentage = 94.2 |change = +45.4 }}{{Election box candidate| |party = "For the Anglo-Irish Agreement" |candidate = "Peter Barry" (Wesley Robert Williamson)[2] |votes = 1,993 |percentage = 5.8 |change = N/A }}{{Election box majority| |votes = 30,634 |percentage = 88.5 |change = +69.7 }}{{Election box turnout| |votes = 34,620 |percentage = 55.0 |change = -9.9 }}{{Election box registered electors| |reg. electors = 62,854 }}{{Election box hold with party link| |winner = Ulster Unionist Party |swing = }}{{Election box end}} References1. ^{{cite web|url=http://www.election.demon.co.uk/by1983.html|title=By-election Result|website=United Kingdom Election Results}} 2. ^{{cite web|url=http://www.ark.ac.uk/elections/fw86.htm|title=Westminster by-elections, 23 January 1986|author=Nicholas Whyte|publisher=Northern Ireland Social and Political Archive|date=13 May 2003|accessdate=2016-12-31}} Other References
