Despite gains, numbers point to right-wing coalition

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.

So far, 123 out of 174 seats have been filled, with Fianna Fáil ahead on 34 seats, Sinn Féin on 30 and Fine Gael next on 30.

Sinn Féin has enjoyed a strong election and scored several remarkable gains, including winning a historic two seats in Waterford in the form of David Cullinane and Conor McGuinness (pictured, top), but appears to be falling short of the gains needed to lead an alternative administration.

Expected to win up to 40 seats, it has shown for the second general election in succession that it is now a force of equal standing with the two right-wing Civil War rivals, and holding well above the smaller parties on the left.

Coalition discussions are on hold pending the final result, but it is expected that strong transfers between the two main government parties could deliver a seat boost which could allow them to shut out Sinn Féin. However, republican/left transfers and Sinn Féin’s skilful vote management could also deliver surprise extra seats in some constituencies, such as Dublin South-Central.

It means that when all the votes are counted and all 174 TDs elected to the expanded 34th Dáil, the likelihood is that Simon Harris and Micheál Martin’s partnership will continue. The upper hand is expected to be with Fianna Fáil, which is on course to emerge with a handful more seats than Fine Gael.

Sinn Féin could yet secure the second highest share of seats but celebrations about the election outcome have been tempered by results which are lower than exit polls had predicted. But given disastrous local and European election results in June and poor recent polling, it amounts to a comeback success.

The only two incumbent casualties so far are Chris Andrews in Dublin Bay South and Martin Browne in Tipperary South. The party has also lost a seat in Laois, where ousted party stalwart turned independent republican, Brian Stanley, took the last seat (pictured, bottom right)

There have also been three clear gains: Louis O’Hara won a seat in the expanded four-seater of Galway East, Fionntan Ó Súillebháin was elected in the new constituency of Wicklow-Wexford, and Ann Graves is a new Sinn Féin TD in the newly partitioned constituency of Dublin Fingal East.

The Green Party remain the big losers of the election. Of 12 TDs, only party leader Roderic O’Gorman had held on, benefiting from a favourable set of transfers to fend off a strong challenge from Aontú’s Ellen Troy in Dublin West.

One of the biggest shocks of the night is Peadar Toibin’s Aontú, which has doubled its vote and gained a second seat in Mayo, where Paul Lawless (pictured, bottom left) won with the help of transfers from Sinn Fein’s Gerry Murray.

But the most prominent news story of the day’s counting was undoubtedly the very narrow defeat of alleged ganglord Gerry ‘The Hutch’ Monk in Dublin Central, edged out by Labour Party candidate Marie Sherlock for the last seat.

The independent candidate had seemed well poised through much of the lengthy count process to win the final seat in the Dublin Central constituency, winning over 3,000 first preferences.

It had been anticipated that Mr Hutch would not attend the count centre when it had become clear he would not be elected, but he arrived unexpectedly just after three o’clock on Sunday.

His presence caused chaotic scenes as a huge media scrum assembled and followed him around the centre, while security staff struggled to keep control.

Dozens of reporters, photographers and camera operators jostled to get close and shouted questions.

He said: “There’s never a guard (member of the Garda) around when you need one.”

Asked why he thought so many people had voted for him, he replied “Because they are looking for change and if I got elected I would give them the change that they want. I would do what they want.”

Asked why he had attended the count centre, he replied: “What do you think? This is a joke, this is a circus.”
