Dungannon (District Electoral Area)

Dungannon is one of the seven district electoral areas (DEA) in Mid Ulster, Northern Ireland. The district elects six members to Mid Ulster District Council and contains the wards of Ballysaggart, Killyman, Killymeal, Moy, Moygashel and Mullaghmore. Dungannon forms part of the Fermanagh and South Tyrone constituencies for the Northern Ireland Assembly and UK Parliament.

It was created for the 1985 local elections, replacing Dungannon Area D which had existed since 1973. It was called Dungannon Town until 2014, and originally contained six wards (Ballysaggart, Coolhill, Drumglass, Killymeal, Moygashel and Mullaghmore). For the 2014 local elections it gained Killyman and Moy from the abolished Blackwater DEA.
