    Naoise Ó Muirí (FG) is showing up at the top of the list for Dublin North Central. Same happening in Galway East to those with an Ó to start their surname.

    I'm guessing the system doesn't recognise the fada and is putting them first because of the space that comes next?

    Given the supposed advantage to being nearer the top of the candidate list, just thought I'd point it out.

    When two candidates are elected in the same count shouldn't their surpluses be distributed seperatly at the same time ?
    e.g in Dublin South West rabbitte and hayes are both elected in the first count but it looks like rabbitte's surplus is distributed in the second count (including some to hayes), then hayes' surplus is distributed in the third count with only 7 votes transfering and 29 non transferable votes.

    Boards.ie is doing something in two stages that the returning officer would do in one. I'm not sure if it makes any difference.
