The 1832 United Kingdom general election in Ireland saw the emergence of the Repeal Association as a major political movement in Ireland. The Association, led by Daniel O'Connell , aimed to repeal the 1800 Acts of Union and restore Ireland to the status enjoyed after the reforms of 1782 , while maintaining Catholic emancipation .
This was the first election following the Representation of the People (Ireland) Act 1832 and the Parliamentary Boundaries (Ireland) Act 1832 , which saw an increase in the Irish representation from 100 to 105 MPs.
