* June 15 – In the Irish general election, the Fianna Fáil party, led by Taoiseach Charles Haughey, fails to win a majority.

Charles Haughey, the Taoiseach of the Republic of Ireland, called an election for June 1981.

Hillery, though not himself political, agreed under pressure from Clare's senior Fianna Fáil TD, party leader and former Taoiseach, Éamon de Valera, to become his running mate at the 1951 general election.

In 1997, McAleese defeated former Taoiseach Albert Reynolds in an internal party election held to determine the Fianna Fáil nomination for the Irish presidency.

The Taoiseach ( head of government ) can, by making a request to the president, effectively dissolve the Dáil at any time, in which case a general election must occur within thirty days.

Upon Lynch's election as Taoiseach, Haughey was appointed Minister for Finance by Lynch in a Cabinet reshuffle, which indicated that Haughey's withdrawal was a gain at the expense of Colley.

Fianna Fáil lost the November 1982 election and FitzGerald once again returned as Taoiseach at the head of a Fine Gael / Labour coalition with a comfortable Dáil majority.

The new Taoiseach now had almost a full Dáil term before the next general election.

Early on in his second term as Taoiseach, Lynch decided that he would not lead Fianna Fáil into another general election campaign.

He remained as Taoiseach until 11 February when Albert Reynolds succeeded him having easily defeated Mary O ' Rourke and Michael Woods in the Fianna Fáil leadership election.

After the 1973 general election Fine Gael came to power in a coalition government with the Labour Party with Liam Cosgrave as Taoiseach.

However, a third general election within eighteen months in November 1982 resulted in FitzGerald being returned as Taoiseach for a second time, heading a Fine Gael-Labour coalition with a working majority.

FitzGerald retired as leader of Fine Gael immediately after the election by the Dáil of Charles Haughey as Taoiseach, to be replaced by Alan Dukes.

In the 1989 election, the party dropped to six seats, but formed a coalition government with Fianna Fáil, with Charles Haughey as Taoiseach, which was the first time Fianna Fáil entered coalition.

Doyle was first elected as a Fine Gael TD to Dáil Éireann at the November 1982 general election, where his party constituency colleague was party leader ( and after the election Taoiseach Garret FitzGerald ).

The Irish general election of 2002 was held on Friday, 17 May 2002 just over three weeks after the dissolution of the 28th Dáil on Thursday 25 April by President Mary McAleese, at the request of the Taoiseach, Bertie Ahern.

The new party became the third largest in the Dáil after the 1987 general election and, two years later, entered into coalition government with Fianna Fáil and supported Charles Haughey for Taoiseach.
