Sligo-Leitrim Count Four: Still no one elected, Cllr Des Guckian eliminated

Frank Feighan is 2,278 votes away from meeting the quota of 11,381 to be elected.

Sligo-Leitrim Count Four: Still no one elected, Cllr Des Guckian eliminated

Count four was declared before 11:30am. Again, no one has been elected.

Frank Feighan (FG) stays in the lead, and with Martin Kenny currently 1,236 votes behind him.

Marian Harkin still faces the fight of her life in her political career. With McSharry and O'Rourke's transfers likely going to Eamon Scanlon, it looks to be unlikely she will be able to retain her Dáil seat with transfers.

Cllr Des Guckian has been eliminated. His 991 votes will be distributed.

Frank Feighan (+13) - 9,103

Martin Kenny (+28) - 7,867

Michael Clarke (+174) - 6,213

Eamon Scanlon (+10)  - 5,952

Chris MacManus (+34) - 5,259

Edel McSharry (+10) - 4,531

Marian Harkin (+67)  - 4,524

Paddy O'Rourke (+5) - 4,101

Marie Casserly (+57) - 2,589

Nessa Cosgrove (+11) - 2,481

Gino O'Boyle (+46) - 1,845

Graham Monaghan (+205) - 1,347

Des Guckian (+73) - 991 (Eliminated)
