Note that under the Local Government Act, 1994 the electoral area of a local authority might differ from its administrative area. Some towns had electoral boundaries wider than their municipal boundaries; while the municipal boundary was required to be within a single county, the electoral boundary was not.[44] Thus, while Drogheda was entirely within County Louth, some electors in County Meath voted for Drogheda Borough Council and consequently for Louth County Council rather than Meath County Council; and similarly for County Laois residents voting for Carlow Urban District and Carlow County councils.[45] The changes of the Local Government Reform Act 2014 eliminated these anomalies.
