Election 2023: Here is every council candidate from every party standing in Northern Ireland on May 18

This time voters will be electing councillors, not MLAs, but becoming “the largest party in local government for the first time here in the north”, as party president Mary Lou McDonald put it this week, would still be a significant coup for SF.

In all there are around 800 candidates, almost half of whom are destined to fail, because there are 462 seats in all.

As it stands now, the DUP are the biggest party on the Province’s councils, having won 122 seats in 2019 (and 24.1% of the first-preference vote).

Sinn Fein won 105 (and 23.2% of the first-preference vote) followed by 88 seats for the UUP (14.1%), 66 for the SDLP (12%), 53 for Alliance (11.5%) and 13 for the TUV (2.2%) with smaller parties like People Before Profit, the Greens and PUP picking up a smattering of seats too.
