Live In Running Election Count

Lads if you are quoting figures for candidates can you please put the parties they are from in brackets as I am not familiar with who is from what party outside a few constituencies!

Dub NC, limited tally, only Artane Whitehall boxes, 3 seats, Labour Aodhan O Riordain 26%, FG RIchard Bruton 25%, Finian Mc Grath 15%

O'Riordan leading Bruton. Pretty impressive for LAB if it's maintained.

Kerry South-Full tally expected at 1pm. First court expected between 3 and 4pm.

Roscommon-South Leitrim: With 20% of boxes open Fine Gael are on 41%. Fianna Fáil is on 18.3%. Independents are at 25%, Labour is on 6.3%, Sinn Féin is on 9% and the Green Party is on 0.4%.
Early predictions put Fine Gael on two seats - Denis Naughton and Frank Feighan with the third seat going to Independent Luke 'Ming' Flanagan.

Updated tallies make more sense.

Dub NC, 42% boxes tally, FF 13.8%, FG 33.8%, lab 23.7%, mc Grath 15.1%#ge11#dubnc

Labour are doing well across the country so far, lot of people have given them first preference over the Fianna Gael party.

The figures are also far showing upper middle class people across the country have voted in Fianna Gael as first choice, were lower class and lower middle class people are voting in Labour as their first choice option.

Anything on Clare so far?

RT @oconnellbrian: Labour look like they're in with serious chance of taking back a seat in Clare based on 21% of tally #ge11 #clare

RT @RTEclare: Early tally returns suggest FG will hold two seats. Labour, FF and Independent James Breen in contention for last two. #GE11 #clare

And also maybe mention how many seats are available, as again, that's something a lot of people mightn't know outside of a few constituencies.

There doesn't seem to be a thread for this, post all your breaking results and analysis here.

Seems kind of unfair that the cc is a member of a party, giving a minor advantage.

"Labours Derek Nolan looks to be topping the tallies in Galway West."

That Tweet doesn't say it, but I believe that applies to just city boxes.

Other Tweets put O Cuiv at 6%, but again that's a city vote AFAIK.

Lets just hope I can celebrate a double victory of a Swansea and Fianna Fail demise:)

Can't wait to hear the Wicklow first tally.

I know the first thing a new government has to do is elect a new CC, so I guess it means that each outgoing government always leaves one sure thing behind. It's weird.

Limerick County (3 seats):

Tally 50% boxes in East County %: FF Collins 22, IND Dillon* 14, LAB Heffernan* 20, FG Neville 18, FG O'Donnell* 12, FG O'Donovan 11. (* = his area) Heffernan steady

dartbhoy

Cork North West tally on C103fm. No surprises here as predicted 2 FG and 1 FF the likely result but the 1 surprise is that Aine Collins will probably beat fellow FG running mate Derry Canty for the last seat. Canty was hotly tipped to win a seat here.

Mr Cawley

Sligo -North Leitrim. 3 Seater

1 FG 20% McLoughlin
2 ula 19% Bree
3 labour/Shinner 14% O Keefe/Colreavey

It would be great to see Higgins back in, always lively Dáil sessions when he attends, probably the only Irish politician that can hold his head up

I'd really like to see Higgins and one other SP member get elected for the singular reason that every time RTE make a comment along the lines of, "8 independents, including Joe Higgins," I want to smack them. Even if you are the only member of your party in the Dáil you are still in a party, one with a manifesto and other members. There exists a type of accountability that doesn't exist with an independent TD. Better or worse, it's not the same. It really shows up both the laziness and bias of our media.
