AFAIK because they underperformed in the 2019 locals so they nominated fewer candidates to maximise vote-to-seat radio under that vote share. Running fewer candidates can be a good strategy in the Irish STV electoral system.

Why don't FF and FG simply merge. In this day and age what is the point of having two parties that are ideologically utterly indistinguishable from each other?

If FF and FG wanted to merge, they would merge. And in many countries there are rival parties whose ideologies are even more similar between them.

What about the SF surplus in Wicklow? Or it has already been distributed?
