General Election 2011

As it stands: Daly 9,465; O’Brien 6,886; Farrell 6,669. Sargent’s 5,160 votes will decide the final two seats

That’s not right. Sargent will get Daly elected.

Then Daly’s surplus will decide between the other two. They’ll have to go right down to the bottom of her ballot papers to see where they’re going. It will end up favouring Farrell I expect. 9th choice versus 10th.

Jaysus Stanley looks like hes gonna get a seat in Laois Offaly for SF. As Shinners go Stanley wouldnt be the worst and another Laois man in the Dail is no bad thing. Given how that Cowen cunt has dominated with his Biffos for so long.

The Biffo fuckers do look like they’re going to put Barry Cowen in though. :angry:

To think how a deeply corrupt individual like Lowry tops the poll and Sargent loses out…Two tweets that caught my eye:

Must say everyone in the #dubn count centre earlier was feeling very sorry for Trevor Sargent. One of the good guys. #ge11

However, the sheer, unadulterated delight at Michael Kennedy’s demise was a sight to behold :wink: #dubn #ge11

Daly would have transferred far more heavily to Sargent so pity he didn’t stay in.

She wouldn’t have had a large surplus to transfer though because she’d only have barely gone over the line on FF transfers.

Trevor’s transfers will go heavily enough to her though I’d say.

Dublin NE second count:

Healy 919 Kenny 4,728 O’Toole 5,120 Power 5,013 Sexton 391 Blaney 1,894 Broughan 10,738 Eastwood 264 Greene 893 Guerin 1,419

Power closing in on third place.

Ming Flanagan and Mick Wallace will be an unstoppable political force in this government :clap:

Fook that.Prediction please.

Brendan Griffen is in for FG will be elected in Kerry South, Healy Rae and Tom Flemming the Independants are next best. John O Donoghue is in 4th after the first count.

Small surplus from Broughan will go to Kenny and small bit to O’Toole.

Greene and Healy will transfer to Kenny probably. Guerin will go to Power.

Haven’t a clue about Sexton or Eastwood.

It will be very tight then and will come down to order of elimination. I’d still reckon Power will be behind Kenny and O’Toole but very close.

RTÉ haven’t mentioned Dublin North at all except for a scrolling text piece at the bottom of the screen. Tommy Broughan just got elected too but no mention.

Enda Kenny Congratulates Voters “For Smashing Fianna Fáil Like A Baby Seal” :lol:

But it is probably all east Limerick, still up for grabs I reckon

Tanaiste gone.Pringle looks like he will get in.

alan farrell who might be elected was in a few of my mates year in a school

every single one of them has said that he wasnt too far away from been in the special class

Collins takes the last seat in Limerick

Enda Kenny very Goldberg like entrance on Rte there.

Picture of the ballot paper in Wicklow causing all the confusion. Apparently lots of votes with numbers written in left column instead of right.

Announcement (count result???) due in 10 minutes.

Pity
