    Depends on transfers, I'd say Fitzgerald is in trouble.

    GP looking to top the seat in Dublin and in the mix for Munster and Ulster NW according to Red C exit polls.
    They could take it. Herself and Ming I would guess in the shootout for the last seat.


  • Registered Users Posts: 7,773 ✭✭✭Fann Linn


    9% between the two FF in Connacht/ Ulster, and also faring out badly elsewhere. I love it.
    Time for MM to go.

    Should be OK as she has Durkan on 5% and could expect some from White as well. Boylan is in trouble.

    Mad number for Cuffe in Dublin 23%
    Delighted FitzGerald FG bombed and FF too
    Labour bombed beaten by SD
    Daly ahead of Boylan SF

    Though the poll is +/-4%

    Ming did bad 10%
    Casey bad too 7%
    Greens doing well in all 3 Euros and the LE's (9%)

    All the lunatics on all Euro ballots apparently ~0-1% ish (exc Casey)


  • Registered Users Posts: 10,669 ✭✭✭✭Jamie2k9


    I would usually vote FG however I only gave them number 4 and 5. I knew Kelly would be safe anyway. Green's and Mick got my one and two. I don't particularly like either but to be honest PESCO has done damage to FG and FF.

    Delighted my numbers 1,2,3 polling well.

    McHugh
    Carthy

    Gave my #1 to Grace O'Sullivan (Greens) in the South. Really hope she gets a seat.

    As did I. Challenge will be to stick to green principles in coming years as they get the opportunity to influence governance.

    Looks like you got the wrong ballot paper.

    Amazing by the Greens. I voted #1 McHugh, but I thought she was a no hoper.

    Maybe the horse will learn to sing.

    Fitzgerald has Durkan to give transfers.

    Absolutely delighted for the Greens. Three seats are definitely in the mix because they are so transfer-friendly.

    There may be a missed opportunity at local level because of a lack of candidates.

    Sinn Fein could hold all three seats, but equally, could lose two of the three seats. Will be a nervous weekend for them. Boylan is definitely in trouble, and Liadh Ni Riadh in the South will need FF transfers.

    Delighted to see greens doing so well, have to say I am surprised I thought Cuffe might get a seat but potentially topping the poll wowsers!

    How is GOD getting on?

    Delighted my numbers 1,2,3 polling well.
    Flanagan
    McHugh
    Carthy

    Flanagan and Carthy are way down on last time, they have not polled well at all if the exit poll is anything close to accurate.

    Seems like Walshe got decimated. Her bubbly videos just weren't enough. I love how she stated she was strong on the Environment and then when questioned on Twitter if she was part of any volunteer groups or initiatives she went totally silent. We hear you Finna Gael, loud and clear.

    Rte has Gannon on 6% as opposed to 3% in that pic. Which has it wrong or is there a reason for the difference? Not that either makes it likely he will get in.

    +/- 3% MOE in the poll. He was on 17% the last time so not a lot. Ming seems to have lost half and may be in trouble.

    She's currently in line to take the 4th seat.

    'decimated' yet she could poll better than sitting MEP Ming.

    To be decimated you have to have a base at which to start at. She's polling around what was predicted if this exit poll is accurate.

    Honestly the nonsense people make up to suit their own narrative.

    SDs 3% in local elections, and also overall European percentage, which equates to 6% in Dublin, given he's the sole candidate.

    Decimated? Two polls before the election showed her at 10% as does this one. The McGuinness surplus could well put her in a position to be elected.

    Labour? There's still a Labour party?


    Seriously, our local ballot was a long, long list (mostly loopers) but... no Labour candidate.

    If the surplus works well in her favour the 3rd seat. McHugh v Ming more likely for the final seat.

    Don't forget her surplus transfers from McGuinness.

    Indeed, she may have missed a tenth of the support she expected, kudos on your latin.


    Ming, however, got beaten on those numbers.
