Mythen picked up a spread of first preference votes from all around the county and has been picking up a healthy level of transfers from eliminated candidates based all around the county too. Itâs getting quite tight after himself and Wallace gained heavily from the elimination of Deirdre Wadding (AAA). Iâm getting more and more hopeful that he can catch Kehoe now. I think Malcolm Byrne wonât catch him even with Aoife Byrneâs votes and that Mythen will then do better than Kehoe from Ger Carthyâs and M Byrneâs elimination.
Feel bit sorry for Jan OâSullivan thereâŠnot the worst of them.
Jim Kemmys goodwill is long gone by the look of it.
she still has a fighting chance
I just flicked it on there on a radio add break. It is hilariously bad. David McCullagh looked utterly confused looking at Carlow Kilkenny and said Jennifer Murnane OâConnor will probably take the last seat for Fianna Fail. Completely forgot to factor in that thereâs a surplus of 2,600 from the Pope to distribute between the two Carlow based candidates and Farmer Pat is only 524 votes behind her.
24 votes in it?
I hope Maurice gets in he is always involved in community work the recent floods especially.
Are the Dublin Central electorate all strung out on heroin? Tiny quota.
Had the radio on all day. Just watched the telly for the last hour or so. Shocking stuff. The two boys are wrecked and bored. Canât believe they missed the Kerry count.
Half of prendevilleâs votes expected to be non-transferrable in limk city
Yes but the left overs look to be anti labour so Maurice should squeak it.A recount looks guaranteed with nothing in it though!
Everyoneâs a winner.
Whatâs the outcome here? The blue shirts did poorly, the soldiers are back, labour gone and the rastoolers/wasters proved they couldnât manage a piss up running too many candidates? Who will the government be.
Quinlivan will be elected.
Only question is whether OâSullivan can make up the difference on OâDonnell. I think she will.
Cork South Central adjourns for the night.
No surprise to see a constituency dominated by FG and FF big cheeses shirking work.
Will Jerry Buttimer sneak up and take Donnchadh OâLaoighaire from behind or do you expect the young Sinn FĂ©in man to hold onto the final seat?
The Healy Raes will be appointed Taoiseach and Tanaiste respectively.
Rahoo! Only right, all politics is local. Do the junkies in Dublin give a fuck about the small farmers in Kerry and vice versa? Hopefully this will hasten the break up of the ârepublicâ
This election count is great entertainment.
Is that fella Halligan in Waterford from Pavee point @Fagan_ODowd
Iâd go for OâLaoighaire but only on a 51-49 probability ratio. Squeaky bum time both for the young Sinn Fein candidate and for Bottomer.
