Repeal Association

The Repeal Association was an Irish mass membership political movement set up by Daniel O'Connell in 1830 to campaign for a repeal of the Acts of Union of 1800 between Great Britain and Ireland.

The Association's aim was to revert Ireland to the fully devolved government briefly achieved by Henry Grattan and his patriots in the 1780s—that is, complete legislative independence for the Parliament of Ireland under the British Crown—but this time with Catholic voting rights that were now possible following the Act of Emancipation in 1829, supported by the electorate approved under the Irish Reform Act 1832.

Repealer candidates contested the 1832 United Kingdom general election in Ireland.

Repealer candidates, unaffiliated with the Whig Party, contested the 1841 and 1847 general elections.

Votes in 1835 and 1837 are included in the Liberal totals in Rallings and Thrasher's tables.
