Default Single Party Government

Number crunchers in FF have us on 84 seats

75 definites and 15 possibles
Of the 15 possibles, 9 are believed to be very likely: Carlow kilkenny (3 ie total of 3 seats for FF, assuming 2 definite and 1 likely/possible), COrk Southwest (2) Donegal NE (2) Donegal SW (2) Dublin South Central (2) Limerick West (2) Tipp North (2) Tipp South (2) Wicklow (3)
That would make 75+9 = 84

Other less likely possibles:
Clare (3), Dublin Central (2), Dublin MIdwest (2), DUblin SOuth (3), Galway West (3), Roscommon (2)

Lookin good!

Single party minority but an overall majority no - i think FF will come up short

Would be a complete disaster. You Fianna Fail guys even know you don't agree with PD driven issues like colocation, I bet you secretly wanted a small Green coalition so that you could drop it without a U-TURN lable, wot will ya do now? That sort of policy makes you look like the only socialist left in the Dáil was wolf in sheeps clothing.

Where'd you get this info? Paddy Power offering 10/11 on FF on their own, either with or without help. According to your info, that's a license to print money. Let's get in before the odds shorten
