Fourth count in Kerry South: Gleeson eliminated, Sheahan (FG) some way behind the two Independents.

Why is Wicklow being so slow?  The eliminated candidates haven't exactly had large numbers of votes to redistribute.

On the RTE website, Dún Laoghaire seems to have gone back to the elimination of the Green.

EDIT: now it's gone back to roughly what it was before, so I presume that was something to do with them editing the figures after the recount (and the recount doesn't seem to have changed much).

Louth: Nash (Lab) elected, and has a surplus of 756 which is slightly more than the difference between Fitzpatrick (FG) and Carroll (FF), so they'll have another count but it would be bizarre if it changed the order.  So the seats actually elected will be FG 2, Lab 1, SF 1.

Kerry South: Griffin (FG) elected with a 1,540 surplus.  Healy-Rae is 1,461 ahead of Sheahan, which I'd guess is too much for the latter to make up, so I presume everyone's favourite Kerry dynasty lives on.

Am I correct in assuming the probability of an FG majority government is virtually zero?

It is zero: they don't have enough candidates in the remaining undeclared constituencies.
