Longford Westmeath General Election 2024 updates: Count five distribution of Cunniffe votes
The faller at this hurdle was Tanya Cannon of Fine Gael
Count five saw the distribution of Dympna Cunniffe, and her 474 votes have not had a significant impact on the standing of the players for the sixth count.
The Longford Westmeath General Election 2024 has now eliminated six runners from the field of 20.
The largest beneficiary if the distribution of Cunniffe's 546 votes was Longford Fianna Fail's Joe Flaherty, his transfer of 173 votes brings his total to 5,429. Unsurprisingly fellow party member Robert Troy was next with 110, followed by Kevin Boxer Moran who took 99.
