Irish voters cast ballots in three elections on Friday.
A day after voters headed to the polls in three highly anticipated elections, the ballot boxes were opened at 9am on Saturday.
Spoilt votes are those which are deemed illegible because there are multiple first preference votes or they have been defaced with messages. He also said that two of the party’s candidates running in Dublin have the potential to top the polls.Speaking at the RDS count centre in south Dublin, Mr Ryan said: “We do know that two counts are looking really good for us: Claire Byrne and Michael Pidgeon .
“If we win a seat in Dingle I’ll be celebrating as much as Dublin Bay South, if not more because that would send a really strong signal about the whole country. The eagerly awaited polls will provide political parties with concrete evidence of voter sentiment, having had to wait more than four years since the last nationwide elections.
To leader Mary Lou McDonald’s regret, this was unrealised potential as the party was still left in opposition after failing to run a sufficient number of candidates in the parliamentary constituencies. For a protracted period of time, Ireland has continued to fail to provide accommodation for all asylum seekers. There have been several anti-migrant protests across the State and buildings earmarked to accommodate refugees have been damaged in suspected arson attacks.
