The '''8th Model Northern Ireland Assembly Election''' was held on 5 June 2020. It was the twelfth election since the Assembly was re-established in 1998. This election resulted in a significant shakeup in the composition of the assembly, with two of the three parties in the [[First Minister and deputy First Ministers|Executive Office]] being replaced. [[Labour]] rose to become the largest party, ensuring that the Other grouping would remain largest and claiming the position of First Minister. The [[Ulster Unionist Party|Ulster Unionists]] remained the sole major Unionist party, though suffered a drop in vote share. The position of nationalist EO representative was notably highly contested, as the [[Social Democratic and Labour Party|SDLP]] and the [[Irish Parliamentary Party|IPP]] received 12 seats each. By virtue of gaining more first preference votes, the SDLP was subsequently entitled to the position.
