    Your TD's and how you view them for the next Election.

    I live in, yes you guessed it Lucan in Dublin Mid West and i have 4 TD's

    FF's John Curran.

    PD's Mary Harney.

    Labour - Joanna Tuffy.

    Green - Paul 'Book You' Gogarty.

    Interesting Constituency is DMW as Harney is off, well is she? Gogarty is gone so leaving 2 free seats. FG will gain, FF and Labour will hold (Tuffy has never been seen anywhere in Lucan btw) and that leaves 1 seat free.

    Who will gain?

    2nd FGer, probably Derek Keating from Lucan. Him and Frances Fitzgerald. If Lucan is anything to go by they very easily have two. What other LEAs are in Dublin Mid West?

    Oh now you have me. I know that Lucan, Palmerstown, Clondalkin, Rathcoole, Saggart, Newcastle are all in it, someone correct me if i'm wrong please. Not 100% of its official boundary.

    I agree with Fitzgerald but not sure about 2 seats but Keating has a massive support.

    Donegal North East:
    Jim McDaid FF
    Niall Blaney FF
    Joe McHugh FG

    McHugh to hold easily, but no chance whatsoever of a second set for them.
    One of McDaid or Blaney to lose to Paidraig MacLochlainn (SF). Maybe McDaid won't stand.
    Or maybe they'll both lose to a new FFer.

    If SF can't gain here, they may pack up and go home.
    If there is a future, it will be Green.

    QuizMaster do you think Paidraig MacLochlainn will win the seat?

    Only Clondalkin and Lucan are LEAs.

    cecelia keaveny keep popping up,trying to get her seat back ,blaney got a lot of votes in inishowen the last time that won't be coming this time,huge area of construction workers who are hardly going to vote FF
    Mcdaid probably won't stand so ciaran brogan will be selected,
    there will also be a few independants who might take a few votes
