Looking forward to chatting about #GE24 and its outcome with Wexford's finest @EndaBradyTV on @trtworld this afternoon at 3pm IST.
Tommy Gould is elected as the first new TD for Cork North Central, thanks to transfers from his eliminated Sinn Fein colleague Joe Lynch. Prompting a rendition of "We are on the one road" in @NemoRangersGAA @newstalkfm
Some happy tears from the McGrath family as Seamus wins the seat vacated by his brother, on the day that Michael assumes his role as European Commissioner. #CorkSouthCentral @NewstalkFM
#CorkSouthCentral will result in 2 FF, 1 FG, 1 SF and 1 SD
Tighter to call in #CorkNorthCentral, but might end up 2 FF, 1 FG, 1 SF and 1 IndIre
Not writing off PBP-S chances yet - transfers will be key.
@NewstalkFM
For those wondering, here's how tight it is in #CorkNorthCentral after Count 6
Chairman of Independent Ireland, Ken O’Flynn, says he expects the party to secure 6-8 seats, and after that, they’ll be open to discussions about forming a Government @NewstalkFM
Celebrations as Fianna Fáil leader Micheal Martin is elected on the first count in #CorkSouthCentral, surrounded by his family and supporters
FINAL TALLY #CorkSouthCentral
Michéal Martin (FF) looks likely to top the poll, and on the first count.
@NewstalkFM
Tally in #CorkSouthCentral is slower, but it's looking like MARTIN and McGRATH (FF), O'LAOGHAIRE (SF) and BUTTIMER (FG). Right now, RICE (SD) could be the surpise as the 5th seat @NewstalkFM
#CorkNorthCentral tally is 75% complete. Looks like O'SULLIVAN (FF) to top the poll, with seats for GOULD (SF), BURKE (FG), O'FLYNN(II). It looks like a straight shootout then between BARRY (SPBP), MAHER (LAB) and FITZGERALD (FF). Fitzgerald *appears* to have the edge.
Fianna Fail's Padraig O'Sullivan at the #CorkNorthCentral count, where he's expected to retain his seat. @NewstalkFM
VERY early tally from #CorkNorthCentral, so it comes with caveats... @NewstalkFM
Gould (SF), Burke (FG), O'Sullivan (FF) doing well as expected.
Barry (PBP) and O'Flynn (IndIrl) in the mix, but these are city boxes. Large part of the constituency is now rural.
10% of boxes in #CorkSouthCentral
Very strong vote for Tánaiste @MichealMartinTD, but lots of these boxes were from near where he lives!!
Busy, bust count staff @NemoRangersGAA for #CorkSouthCentral and #CorkNorthCentral @NewstalkFM is live across the day for #GE2024
European Commissioner @mmcgrathtd on the importance of stable Government, as counting gets underway. As an aside, his brother Seamus is likely going to take his old seat in #CorkSouthCentral
