Independent Republican (Irish: Poblachtach Daonlathach) was a political title sometimes used by Irish republicans when contesting elections[1] in the Republic of Ireland and Northern Ireland.
In the main, but certainly not always, Independent Republican candidates were members of Sinn Féin or the Irish Republican Army[which?]. In times when these organizations were proscribed or when they refused to register as political parties, the label "Independent Republican" was used.[citation needed]
