    Can't agree with you analysis there OP

    Even though the FF vote will be through the floor I still cannot see the core being so reduced that Calleary cannot even scrape on.

    Also I cannot see how SF will get a seat running two candidates.
    They never had great support in Mayo and even though SF are a popular party of protest coming to this election, come polling day people will have seen through their rhetoric and will not vote for them, heck that already happening with the latest Red C poll.

    here is my take on it, in no particular order

    1. Kenny
    2. Ring
    3. O' Mahoney
    4. Calleary
    5. Kilcoyne or Cowley or at a stretch Mulhern
