Fianna Fáil leadership election, 1994
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
The 1994 Fianna Fáil leadership election began in November 1994, when Albert Reynolds resigned as party leader and Taoiseach. Reynolds had been party leader since February 1992 and had served as Taoiseach since then. His successor was elected by the members of the Fianna Fáil parliamentary party on December 19, 1994. Bertie Ahern was the only candidate to stand and was thus elected leader.
