I just used it as a guide and gave my first 3 preferences to people who I choosed. Did check the answer on questions that I was concerned with most. Like 'Rice' who i disagreed with on 'Hate Speech' but still gave a No.1. For preferences 4 to 10 it assisted me. I downgraded myself another candidate that would have got a higher preference.
Printed off my 'Order Preference' and made a list to take to the ballot with me.

- "Many people are going down to their 14th and 15th preferences," McGrath told reporters after a stroll around the count centre.
- But perhaps the most interesting twist will be the fight for that fifth seat, following the addition of Bishopstown, Glasheen and Mardyke, with the Social Democrats’ Pádraig Rice, only a councillor a few months, now tipped to potentially pull off a famous victory for Holly Cairin’s party.
What a way to phrase it 'SocDems look to eat Labour's lunch', also glad 'Pádraig Rice' is hopefully going do well and get a seat. Glad I gave him my 1st Preference! As it says was he predicted by some observers?
Oh I only went as far as 10, have people really gone deeper?
@Pen Rua Did you bring in a list that you voted the full ballot?

- 7.05pm: Fianna Fáil leader Micheál Martin has been elected on the first count in Cork South Central. The Tánaiste secured 14,526 votes, some 4,075 votes above the quota of 10,451. ~~ Source
Glad Rice has done well and unless he gets a lot of transfers, can't see my ballot going further at this stage.

I edited and mentioned TheJournal as another good guide in the 'General Thread' but just found this silly mistake.

As could be predicted must transfers went to McGrath, but FG pickup some too! Rice +79.
3 candidates elimited for next count.
- Ward, Valerie
105 - O'Leary, John
61 - Field, Tony
37
Edit 22:49: -
No change from the order on last count!
For count 4 counting Graham DE BARRA, eliminated 230 votes. He was my 10th preference to bury my ballot on a no-hoper!
Note:- I will be going out for dinner tomorrow and busy in the morning so could someone accept the task of keeping the thread updated. @dulpit ???? 😀

Hope people don't start using the 18 count against them like they have with Simon Harris!
