A by-election for the United Kingdom parliamentary constituency of Mid Ulster was held on 7 March 2013, triggered by the resignation of incumbent Sinn Féin Member of Parliament (MP) Martin McGuinness in order to concentrate on his position as Deputy First Minister of Northern Ireland and avoid so-called "double jobbing". It was won by Francie Molloy, also of Sinn Féin.
