"Independent Alliance" (i.e. a group of nobodys with no idealogical bond beyond wanting to follow Ross's coattails)

The Independents Alliance, a sub-grouping of Independents, formed for parliamentary procedural party but officially registered as a party.

Regarding Dublin Rathdown, it seems quite possible that Alan Shatter will lose his seat (and he's been around for decades) and almost certain that Alex White, the Minister for Communications, Energy and Natural Resources, will do so too.

Second count complete in Dublin Rathdown.  Shane Ross (IA) has become the first candidate to make quota, Peter Mathews (Ind) eliminated.

I see much speculation about a new election. How likely is that?

Labour utterly crushed in Dublin Mid-West, falling 26%. Sinn Fein has its first TD of the night, Eoin O'Broin. Meanwhile, FF's Sean Fleming tops the poll and is elected in Laois.

It's certainly possible that Ireland could have another election within a year. Majority is 79 seats, RTÉ seat projection, based on the exit poll, is FG 46; FF 37; SF 27. So only FG+FF is possible as a two party collation on that projection. A stable government may be hard to form.

Read that FF and FG are looking into a coalition, even though so many promises not to.
