He was re-elected at the September 1927 and 1932 general elections, but died in office later that year, aged 36.cite web |url=http://www.electionsireland.org/candidate.cfm?ID=1521 |title=Frank Carney's electoral history |work=ElectionsIreland.org |accessdate=2008-03-27] No by-election was held for his seat, which remained vacant until the next general election, in January 1933.
