Check out the latest updates from the Donegal local elections 2024 as candidates eagerly await election results!

The local elections in 2024 in Donegal are in full swing, with candidates on the edge of their seats as the election count gets underway. The 100% Redress Party is optimistic about their chances, but so far, no councillors have been elected. Across seven LEAs including Letterkenny and Buncrana, the suspense is palpable as the votes are tallied.

At the Highland Hotel in Glenties, independent candidate Michael McClafferty exudes confidence as he closely monitors the counting process. Sinn Féin leads with the highest number of candidates, followed by Fianna Fáil, Fine Gael, and Aontú. As 91 candidates await their fate, the pressure mounts with each ballot paper being sorted.

Women representation in the election remains low, with only two candidates, Joy Beard and Niamh Kennedy, in the running for a seat. While the quota may not be reached in the Donegal Local Electoral Area, Fianna Fail's Micheal Naughton is poised to secure a top position in the polls.

In the midst of the election hustle, the race for seats in Donegal heats up, promising an exciting outcome for the constituents. Stay tuned for further updates as the results unfold in this closely contested election.
