County Council Count

In my opinion · 06-06-2009 9:46am #1

Valerie Beirne looks safe in Strokestown. She took 222 out 444 Elphin votes.

Larry Breenan will not take seat in Mid Roscommon. Will stay as was.

Gerry Garvey 68 votes in Boyle town only 8 there last year. Still in trouble.

I predict that Hopkins will be elected because of strong SF support in Arigina they will transfer to him from Suffin.

In my opinion · 06-06-2009 12:56pm

Ming and Kelly are just unstoppable

Ronan|Raven · 06-06-2009 12:58pm

Yup, a fantastic result for the two of them. Well done to both of them.

In my opinion · 06-06-2009 2:27pm

Ming and Kelly will have serious surplus.

Last 2 seats between Mulligan Frain and Fitzmaurice.

After Connaughtons surplus was distributed but before the Mc Namara surplus is distributed.

In my opinion · 07-06-2009 1:04am

I have followed elections a long time but the Castlerea Tally was the least accurate I have seen.

Its none the less a great sport the best blood sport around.

In my opinion · 07-06-2009 9:04am

Great day for independents and not finished yet.

Kevin11 · 07-06-2009 10:09am

Thats a massive vote for John Kelly. He will have to be tempted to run again in the next general election

Murrays vote of 579 to be distributed. Mc Greal to get elected soon and maybe creaton and callaghan soon as well. Watch Pascal get a good share. Kilcoyne may be next to go?

In my opinion · 07-06-2009 3:20pm

Long shot here.

If Mulligan is not elected on this count watch Frain pass out Kilcoyne and then Kilcoyne get eliminated and elect Frain. 20% chance that there will be no FF councillor.

Frain needs Mc Greal to be elected and Mulligan to be waiting. Mulligan will be elected have no fear of that. It would be a justice if FF got no seat. I know Paschal Fitzmaurice will get plenty from Murray but so should FG. Comments please.

Mike... · 07-06-2009 3:29pm

Kilcoyne Gone

According to shannonside there might be a recount between Kilcoyne and Frain

Mulligan will be elected. Creaton Callaghan as well this time. Frain should get good transfer. Mulligans surplus will be good to Frain. Frain may make it. Slim chance of no FF seat. Wait and see

Will fitzmaurice get 33% of the transfer from Kilcoyne? Any ideas. Please comment

Mike... · 07-06-2009 3:38pm

Doubt it, prob more of a Ballagh transfer will go Mulligans way

starbelgrade · 07-06-2009 3:39pm

13 seats filled for the county council... a good turnout at the polling stations.. pity so many of them were Fianna Failers.

In my opinion · 07-06-2009 3:43pm

Agree 230 of a difference here between Frain and Fitzmaurice. Mc Greal will only need small transfer to be elected. Kilcoynes vote should end up with Frain even if they go through Mulligan they will return. Frain could make up the difference you would feel.
Reminds me of 99. FF transfered to Lynn rather than to FF.

In my opinion · 07-06-2009 3:58pm

I would say there may be a bit of a change here on the numbers but I hope Frain stays in front. FF must not get seats!!!
