♭ Carrick Castle by-election, 18 October 2018
After independent unionist councillor Charles (Jim) Brown died in August 2018, the Electoral Office determined that none of his three proposed substitutes met the criteria for co-option. This triggered the first by-election in Northern Ireland since local government reform in 2014.http://britainelects.com/2018/10/18/previews-18-oct-2018/ Previews: 18 Oct 2018 2018-10-18 Britain Elects 2018-10-19 en-GB The DUP's Peter Johnston won the seat on the third count.http://www.eoni.org.uk/News/Carrick-Castle-By-Election-18-October-2018 The Electoral Office of Northern Ireland - EONI www.eoni.org.uk 2018-10-19https://www.bbc.com/news/uk-northern-ireland-45913207 DUP wins Carrickfergus by-election McCormack Jayne 2018-10-19 BBC News 2018-10-19 en-GB
