Good work, Keep em coming lads..

I remember for the local elections, there was a great site showing all of the latest tallies/news on their front page. Does anyone happen to remember/know which one?

Ok I'm stickying this.

All vote discussion here untill the first counts start flowing in.
We'll decide what to do later as regards indicidual threads but I'd ask people to open a Dublin Thread and then one each for the provinces or the interesting battles.

Lets keep today tidy and fun!

No Castleknock boxes open yet though - Vadakar's main hunting ground. However, Mulhudart boxes are in - Higgins home turf, and he has polled badly (for him) there... so lot's of interest to come there.

Lenihan in already - gas...

RTE offer a text service;

http://www.rte.ie/extra/sms_election.html

And also results per-county on their website;

http://www.rte.ie/news/elections2007/constituencies.html

Might be of use.

Agree with that- he deserves to get back - all's not lost though, all though it is tough to see exactly where his transfers will be coming from and how many

Tom Parlon's looking iffy already, an independent is already beating him in early tallies in Laois/Offaly!

Martin Brady polling well in DNE, as is his runnign mate Woods.

They have nearly 40% between them.

Just in case people aren't aware - RTE are streaming their live television coverage

I'd imagine that was in a very specific area. The independent(Bracken) is near Clara. Can't imagine Parlon would be behind him overall.

bracken is that the chap with the crazy hairdo, would be hillarious if he put parlon out!

Who the hell votes for that man?! It's beggars belief how people feel he represents them in any way. Come on Burton/Varadkar. Higgins will have to go I'm afraid, for the greater good.

Tim O'Malley PDs in trouble - needs good transfers from Willie... could be a Labour gain.

Louth will be probably be decided in the "wee hours"(:p ) and I'd expect it to be extremely tight. There are reckoned to be 2/3 in the running for that final seat, probably McGuinness, Kirk and maybe Deary. I'd expect O'Dowd to get in given that he is the only Drogheda based TD.

In DNE Larry O'Toole is not optimistic at present, in 4th based on current tallies and will depend heavily on transfers.

Labour may not be doing as bad as people think. Costello, Quinn and Burton were expected to be in big trouble, but are looking fairly solid.
Where are the labour losses ???

According to LMFM, McGuinness might not be in the shake down, no Dundalk or Drogheda boxes opened yet. Kirk is polling stronger, Deary of the Greens isn't expecting much.
