Think all of these have now come in bar the Crowe top votes one.
How many seats form a government
81, mate.
Transfer toxic isnāt the word.
I spoke to a couple of lads today who wouldnāt be interested in politics whatsoever but they voted in this GE.
Now, the main reason for voting was the Black & Tans commemoration. Not the housing or homeless situations.
Nothing untoward there at all and it was great to see them casting votes because generally their relationships with pens & papers would be weekly visits to pencil street.
What I did find intriguing from the lads I spoke to was the fact that they all voted for all candidates but made sure to leave the FG/FF candidates last in preference.
You have got to hand it to SF on one hand, they mobilised the lads due to the RIC issue. Used the issue to get Social Media hopping and got the rewards.
Whether the thought process to then not expand their candidate numbers wasnāt so sharp.
I wish them the best now, hope they celebrate with plenty of RA songs and get that out of their system.
I hope for all our sakes they form a Coalition government and we get back to the business of running the Country and sorting out the issues in most need.
It would have been fitting had Simon Harris lost his seat but at least he is being made wait a similar period of time that someone on a trolley in a hospital might have to wait for a bed.
80 if you take the cheann comhairle off the opposition
How many of them can afford to do that now though?
Peter Fitzpatrick, I assume too?
Those FF & FG figures are wrong. FF will get 38 and FG 35/6
Gavan has deleted the tweet
Gavan hadnāt a clue if he thinks FF will get 39
Nailed it.
Gavan has been trying all election to rush tweets out and making mistakes along the way - thereās a decent bit of want in him
The country has spoken mate, a government will have to be formed.
If it isnt FFG will suffer more losses.
I pissed myself at that. She is some block of a woman. The lads just couldnāt get her up.
Harkin has been elected in Sligo Leitrim, 858 over the quota.
Would her surplus be more FF or FG inclined? Iād have guessed FF.
Then thereās almost 6k of FG transfers to decide the last seat. Feighan FF is 1178 behind Scanlon FF at this point. Looks like FG are taking this.
Almost sure that Feighan will hop over Scanlan and take that seat
