No election on Count Seven

At the end of Count Seven in the Naas LEA early this morning, there was no further election on the distribution of DDI candidate Martin Byrne's 348 votes, writes Brian Byrne. Independent Paddy Horan received the bulk of Martin Byrne's votes, 164, with 96 of the DDI candidate's votes being non-transferable.

With five seats still to be filled to the 1,315 quota area, the state of play is Labour's Anne Breen on 906 votes, FG's Fintan Brett on 871, FF's Willie Callaghan (1,197), Labour's Fergus Carpenter (665), Labour's Ger Dunne (575), FG's Billy Hillis (872), Indpendent Paddy Horan (706), FG's Jacinta O'Sullivan (661), and Robert Power (1,241).

Those excluded so far are Francis O'Rourke, Cathal Spelman and Martin Byrne. Elected are James Lawless (FF), Sorcha O'Neill (SF), Seamie Moore (Ind) and Darren Scully (FG).

The count has just resumed.
