Labour's Marie Sherlock has taken the final seat in Dublin Central. She overtook independent candidate Gerard “The Monk” Hutch following the distribution of Paschal Donohoe's surplus. To clarify: Hutch has been excluded. #GE24

Count 10 in Limerick City: Kieran O’Donnell (FG) has been elected. The race for the final seat is incredibly tight, with just a single vote separating Connor Sheehan (LAB) and Elisa O’Donovan (SD). #GE24

Screenshot of declared results from Dublin Mid West in the Irish general election. It shows Eoin Ó Broin of the Social Democrats as having been elected on the first count. Instead, Eoin Ó Broin of Sinn Féin was elected. They are two different candidates who happen to have the same name

Oops, looks like the Irish Times have accidentally elected the wrong Eoin Ó Broin in Dublin Mid West #ge24
Congratulations to @social-democrats.bsky.social I guess

First count results are now coming in, with Fine Gael’s Jennifer Carroll MacNeill securing the first TD seat after reaching the quota in Dún Laoghaire. Exit polls from last night indicate a tight race between the major parties in the 2024 general election. #GE24 #FineGael

Cian O’Callaghan is set to lead the poll in Dublin Bay North with 15% of first preference votes. Speaking on RTÉ, the Social Democrats TD confirmed plans to engage with Labour in the coming days, emphasizing the importance of thorough negotiations before any government formation. #GE24

Could be - but around 5 candidates with over 10% are above him.

7% when 88% of boxes were tallied.

Immigration was a key issue in the election, with independents Malachy Steenson (Dublin Central) and Stephen Kerr (Mayo) focusing their campaigns on it. Despite leading in first preferences, tallies suggest neither is likely to be elected. No far-right candidate has recieved more than 5%. #GE24

Newer parties in #GE24 are making strides. Independent Ireland eyes extra seats with Collins, Fitzmaurice, and O'Donoghue leading. Noel Thomas (Galway West) outpaces incumbents, while Charles Ward (100% Redress) could win the party’s first Dáil seat.

Fianna Fáil's addition of Gráinne Seoige and Alison Comyn to the Galway West and Louth tickets caused a stir. Early tallies show Seoige in joint seventh place in Galway West (45% of boxes tallied) and Comyn in sixth place in Louth. The final outcome will depend on the counts. #GE24

Holly Cairns (Social Democrats) is set to retain her seat in Cork South West. Despite the retirement of Róisín Shorthall and Catherine Murphy, the Exit Poll and tallies bring good news for the party, with Aidan Farrelly expected to take a seat in Kildare North. #GE24 #SocialDemocrats

After struggling with transfers in 2020, Sinn Féin is fielding 71 candidates this time, aiming to secure more seats in strongholds like Donegal, Cavan-Monaghan, and Louth. They are hopeful of becoming the largest party, with Matt Carthy optimistic about gains. #GE24

Early tallies from Dublin Central show Gerard Hutch ("The Monk") in contention. Mary Lou McDonald (SF) and Paschal Donohoe (FG) are safe, while Gary Gannon (Soc Dem) is performing well. Hutch’s candidacy has been controversial, with his criminal past criticized during the campaign. #GE24

Green Party Deputy Leader Catherine Martin (Dublin Rathdown) is struggling in 6th place, after topping the poll in 2020. Roderic O'Gorman (Dublin West) is also under pressure to retain his seat. Former leader Eamon Ryan's replacement, Hazel Chu, faces an uphill battle in Dublin Bay South. #GE24

Despite Fianna Fáil's strong exit poll showing, Health Minister Stephen Donnelly faces a tough battle to retain his seat in Wicklow. With redrawn boundaries and 5 TDs vying for 4 seats, Donnelly is currently in 7th place and will need strong transfers to stay in the race. #GE24

After talking about how his car can "drive itself to Dublin", he added "the people of Kerry are my boss!"

Michael Healy-Rae on RTÉ: "I'm very grateful to all the people of Kerry who came out and voted for me and y brother. I have the best Director of Elections in all of the country, me son." #GE24

With 75% of boxes tallied in Cavan Monaghan, Sinn Féin’s Matt Carthy leads with 15.28%, on track to retain his seat. Niamh Smyth (FF) is second at 9.33%, while Cathy Bennett (SF) is third at 9.09%. Brendan Smith (FF) is in eighth at 7.02%. Surplus votes will be key. #GE24

With 40% of boxes tallied in Donegal, Sinn Féin’s Padraig Mac Lochlainn leads with 24%, followed by Pearse Doherty at 19.5%. Charlie McConalogue (FF) is polling at 17%, while Charles Ward (12%) and Fine Gael’s duo (8%) trail. Sinn Féin leads with 47% of the vote so far. #GE24

As of the latest tally in #GE24, no far-right candidate has surpassed 5% of the vote in any constituency across the country. This comes as votes continue to be counted and tallied, with early results indicating limited support for far-right candidates.

All boxes are open in Carlow-Kilkenny, with almost 55% tallied. A first tally count is expected after 2pm. Most tallies are from Carlow, with some from Kilkenny City. Green Party's Minister Malcolm Noonan is at risk with just 3% of first preferences, though he may benefit from transfers.

Here's where the Green Party is bracing for seat losses:

• Dublin Fingal West
• Dún Laoghaire
• Waterford
• Dublin South West
• Dublin Central
• Limerick City
• Dublin Bay South

#GE24

Green Party Deputy Leader Róisín Garvey is unlikely to retain her Clare seat, currently polling at just 6%. #GE24
