The European elections in Ireland have brought unexpected twists and turns as no Irish MEPs have been elected yet, with counts suspended in key constituencies like Dublin, Midlands-North-West, and Ireland South. The suspense continues as Mick Wallace battles it out for a seat in the Ireland South constituency, with the first count projected to conclude on Monday morning. Meanwhile, all eyes are on the ongoing counting process for both the European and local elections, with results shaping the political landscape in Ireland.

In Dublin, Fianna Fáil's Barry Andrews leads the poll, while other high-profile candidates compete fiercely for the remaining seats. The situation is equally intense in Ireland South, with a daunting task ahead to finish the first count by Sunday night. As the drama unfolds in Cork and beyond, the future composition of the European Parliament remains uncertain.

On a historical note, the Green Party makes waves as Honore Kamegni becomes the first Black person elected to Cork City Council, marking a significant moment in Irish politics. Amidst the electoral frenzy, the war of words intensifies, with only one county, Leitrim, completing voting and Sinn Féin securing the final seat. Stay tuned for more updates as the clock ticks for Europe in these gripping elections.

As the election saga continues, the uncertainty and excitement surrounding the remaining European seats in Dublin highlight the fierce competition between parties. Whether Fianna Fáil's Barry Andrews and Fine Gael's Regina Doherty secure their positions or face a surprising twist, the outcome will shape the political landscape. Additionally, Mick Wallace's battle in Ireland South underscores the unpredictable nature of electoral processes, keeping the nation on edge as results unfold.
