Sinn Féin TD Eoin Ó Broin has said that Mary Lou McDonald has been in contact with leaders of the Social Democrats and the Labour Party as the outcome of the 26 County general election became clear.

A Fianna Fáil/Fine Gael-led coalition is now seen as the most likely outcome of the 26 County general election after counting has completed in most constituencies.

The first day of counting in the 26 County general election has concluded, but with every party celebrating bar the Greens and the far right, the outcome remains very uncertain.

Sinn Féin are open to forming a new coalition government with anyone, and expect everyone to talk with them, a returning TD has indicated, as early general election results started coming in this afternoon.

Sinn Féin has won the most support of the three main parties in the 26 County general election, according to the result of a major national exit poll, but only slightly ahead of the main coalition parties, Fine Gael and Fianna Fáil.
