    Just to start the ball rolling, looks in Dublin South East like Andrews, Creighton & Quinn in that order, with the last seat between Gormley and McDowell. And at the risk I know of upsetting lots of Boardsies, McDowell appears to be in serious trouble, almost no votes from Rathmines.....:D

    R. Quinn is doing quite well there.

    I'd love to know what 25 feckers voted for O'Gara.

    Does she have something to do with that chap that was shot by the IRA?

    Yep, her campaign was largely based on that, he's her brother afair.

    she's running on an ante SF card to high light her brothers murder.

    His sister. She claims he was shot by the IRA. The guy that got him shot has nothing to do with the IRA. His mother lives over in Dorset st. and her boyfriend has links to Sinn Fein. Someone was most likely paid to shoot him. I read in the Sunday Independent a couple of weeks ago that 11 IRA members were arrested over the murder. What a load of rubbish. Most of them were 18-21 year olds from the flats.

    Cheers, I thought the name rang a bell.

    Dublin North East

    Martin Brady (FF) 20%
    Michael Woods (FF) 19%
    Tommy Broughan (Lab) 16%
    Larry O'Toole (SF) 15%
    Terence Flanagan (FG) 13%
    Brody Sweeney (FG) 10%
    David Healy (GP) 7%

    Don't ask me how on earth Fianna Fáil have held their same percentage from 2002 after both TD doing sweet FA for 5 years but there you go. FF will take 1 seat, Tommy Broughan will take the 2nd on transfers and last between FF/FG. The fact FF have split their vote and FG increasing by 8% may see Terence Flanagan steal this seat. It will be almighty close.

    Dublin North West

    2 Seats have gone to Fianna Fail and the Labour and Sinn Fein are battling it out for the third seat.

    Well they must have been doing something and they must have been doing it right judging by those percentages. People are not stupid.*

    Gumby.

    Umm, didn't she go to some SF scumbag who as good as said he'd call off the people threating her brother and some days later he was killed?


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 7,669 ✭✭✭Colonel Sanders


    there was also a story that her sister was threatened by thugs while trying to canvas a few days ago. Thank God SF are showing no sign of gaining more than 1 or 2 seats.

    Well in the case of Brady he has been a little active (not a fraction of the work of Tommy Broughan) but Woods has literally sat on his arse for 5 years so hopefully Brady takes the FF seat and Flanagan takes the 3rd seat for FG.

    Richard Boyd-Barrett looking possible in Dun Laoighre

    It's looking something like this in North Central:

    Richard Bruton FG 25.5%
    Sean Haughey FF 24.64%
    Ivor Callely FF 19.34%
    Finian McGrath IND 14.22%
    Derek McDowell LAB 7.2%
    Bronwen Maher GP 5.2%
    Peter Lawlor SF 3.78%

    It's not looking good for McGrath... I was hoping he'd be able to knock Callely out of it.


  • Registered Users Posts: 855 ✭✭✭crybaby


    How the hell are Brady and Woods going to hold onto those seats?

    Im shocked that O'Toole is ahead of Flanagan and Sweeney didnt realise my area had that much Sinn Fein support

    fairly bad outcome for McDowell (Lab) aswell

    Who Daithi Doolin? She went to him when they got threats and he said he'd make enquiries. After he made the enquiries he told her he knows nothing of it and it has nothing to do with Sinn Fein. He certainly never said he'd get them to call it off. Recently Esther showed him a photo of the boyfriend of the mother (with alleged links to Sinn Fein) and he said he didn't recognise him.
    there was also a story that her sister was threatened by thugs while trying to canvas a few days ago. Thank God SF are showing no sign of gaining more than 1 or 2 seats.
    Yeah, they're thugs from the flats 2 minutes from my house. What have they got to do with Sinn Fein? Don't believe the rubbish you read in the papers. They also threatened Paul Williams when he was in Esther's house. Ask him and he'll tell you they're nothing more than thugs.

    btw - I voted for Chris Andrews because I know him well. I just know too much about the Rafferty murder to let people blame it all on Sinn Fein/IRA.

    Yeah, by the looks of it Callely will get elected on transfers form Haughey.

    McGrath's problem is the fact that he's a Shinner in all but name, and a lot of people felt that he lied to them last time out, that's where he's losing ground.

    Obviously not an official source, the same newspaper source, but her sister was quoted as being told to 'f*ck off' that is was SF territory and the thugs claimed to be SF supporters. Fair point about not believing everything in papers but I don't find this very easy to believe.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 5,492 ✭✭✭MementoMori


    Any word on Dublin Central?

    Only info I have is the RTE tally numbers and word that Mary Lou McDonald is polling badly (Hurrah!)

    Extraordinary that Bertie doesn't look like he was able to get a second candidate in, but given the way the FF campaign in this constituency was run -

    14:06 Dublin Central, 70% Boxes Open, FF 45%, FG 10%, LAB 12%, PD 1%, GP 6%, SF 9%, IND 17%, CSP 1%, Prediction FF-1; IND-1; SF/FG/LAB- last 2

    If you want me to PM the whole story with names I will do. I know for a fact that these thugs from the flats have absolutely nothing to do with Sinn Fein/IRA. The piece on the SIndo about 11 IRA members being arrested was absolutely laughable.
