Probably too late, but if you go back one page on your browser you can often see it and then do an cut and paste.

At 6pm last night Im informed the figures "raw" were 15.4 ff, 37.7 fg, 18.1 lab, 10.2 sf, 1.8 green, 16.8

I definitely think FG will climb from this figure at expense of Indos.

C'mon FG!!! Get that overall majority!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[Kill Bill]

Never thought FG overall majority was on the cards anyway - it was a media creation really the figures didn't add up.

Brian Dowling of RTE must be highly embarrassed today

I'm delighted Labour will be in government not because it will make a blind bit of difference to the lives of ordinary people but because it will expose those fu*@kers and open up a real space on the left.

Real kick in the nuts for FG

Nah, they're still in command .... the lower transfers will tell all. No overall majority, but maybe it was never on. It was worth going after.

Disappointing. Good to see ff didn't get a bounce. Would have thought that transfers would have boosted FG some what. But bye bye ff, the cancer of Irish society has be dealt with.

Sorry to say, but just like cancer they could be back!

All's not lost. It's only an exit poll. There is a margin of error.

I woke up especially to hear that poll

[Harry Hayfield]

Fine Gael 36.1% (+8.8% on 2007) winning 69 quotas
Labour 20.5% (+10.4% on 2007) winning 40 quotas
Inds and Others 15.5% (+9.9% on 2007) winning 12 quotas
Fianna Fail 15.1% (-26.5% on 2007) winning 29 quotas
Sinn Fein 10.1% (+3.1% on 2007) winning 13 quotas
Greens 2.7% (-2.0% on 2007) winning 3 quotas
Fine Gael short of an overall majority by by 14 quotas
Swing: Fianna Fail to Fine Gael 17.7%, Fine Gael to Labour 0.8%

The breakdown I have of Inds and Others is: 11 Inds, 1 ULA

[Expose the lot of them]

Let us hope this is accurate and we are spared the horror of a standalone FG govt.

Very close to my projections - LP a bit higher

Waiting … « Irish Polling Report


% seats
FF 16.3% 20 (Poll gives 15.1%)
FG 37.9% 73 (poll gives 36.1%)
LP 19.5% 42 (Poll gives 20.5%)
GP 2.0% 0 (Poll gives 2.7%)
SF 9.8% 10 (Poll gives 10.1%)
oth 14.5% 21 (Poll gives 15.5%)

Just a poll etc etc, but not a bad start to my Saturday I have to say .... the main deviation is likely to see 3 GP TDs in contention for a seat, prob one elected, and decent chance of 2, on a good day they'd get 3.

fg will still get a hell of a lot of seats on those figures. They are very transfer friendly this time out. I wouldn't rule out fg green coalition .
