The Northern Ireland general election 1929 was held on 22 May 1929. Like all previous elections to the Parliament of Northern Ireland it produced a large majority for the Ulster Unionist Party. It was the first held after the abolition of proportional representation and the redrawing of electoral boundaries to create single-seat constituencies. As with the rest of the United Kingdom this has made it more difficult for independent and minor party candidates to gain election.
