I think it will be FF/FG again with god knows who. Hopefully a left wing party
It will be November 15th
Holly Cairns looks to be tallying around 19% and is 3rd based on tallies. Combined FG tally is 22% though, so not safe.
If she loses by 1 when she didn't get to vote that'd suck.
Breathtaking if The Monk gets in.
He will get Steenson transfers.
Bad day for Clare Daly.
There was a very late voting surge yesterday evening in DC, it bucked the trend of the general lower working class turnout, suspect it was Hutch people.
Stephen Donnelly tallies....badddd...good
wicklow 12% tallied
Minister for Health on 6% :)
And Mary Fitzpatrick……On 4% it doesn't look like she'll be elected and she is trying to win a seat in DC since 2007.
SF huge drop from 2020, one quota between the two Shinners.
I would think a substantial number gravitate from left but I don't have figures. Enough to make a big difference in elections I'm sure. There are often complaints about low numbers of young people voting in elections so a portion of them discontinuing voting will hardly make a huge difference.
That will have been working people so not Hutch voters.
Oh I thought it was since 2007! Surely she will take the hint at this stage.
...
Ya the youth vote is low which proves most are non voters. But the old vote is high which show most people do only begin to vote as they age. So it's not left going right it's right beginning to vote.
It's effectively a 2nd Govt seat.
You're correct. It is 2007.
His tally in other areas awful seemingly...so hopefully that does for him.
Him getting in would be disgusting tbh.
Missed something here: who is the FF elected?
We are arguing oppsite points with the same information. The small youth turnout could be argued to not affect results if they leave as I'm saying . Or not make a big difference if they swing right as you are saying. I'd like to see stats on it all.
Kate O'Connell polling no where. No idea why she receives so much media attention.
The ceann comhairle is automatically electled to following Dail
That generous media coverage she received since loosing her seat had to have helped
Thing about the likes of Ruth coppinger or Paul Murphy is whether they get elected or not, RTE are eager to hear their opinions
Yes, the perfect globalists, green party and Soc Dems are the same
Ok, thanks. I’m from SO’F’s constituency but think RTÉ saying He’s the first seat smacks of RTÉ obeying its joint paymaster.
No. CC is always pencilled in at the start of the count.
Someone has reached the quota already?
But he is the first seat. He's deemed automatically re-elected.
the ceann comhairle is automatically returned
He's local he's invested in the community, he would represent two fingers to the establishment by sections of people and communities ignored by politicians. It's easy to understand...
ah, that’s a bit harsh.
This is the same constituency that elected a TD with 2.7% of first preferences.
Regarding electing people with criminal records, we crossed that rubicon a couple of decades ago.
Dub SC
26% tallied
SF looking good for 2 seats, OSnodaigh 16%, Doolan 19%
Greens TD on 2% :)
Joan Collins not doing great on 4%, the PBP replacement for Brid Smith on 14%
FF or FG looking on for 1 seat
