Not all Irish presidents have to be elected. A candidate can be uncontested, meaning there is no election. A president can serve two 7 year terms. 9 different people have been president of Ireland, covering 13 full or partial terms. 7 presidential elections did happen. They were in 1945, 1959, 1966, 1973, 1990, 1997 and 2011.
