It doesn't really mean anything though...they didn't field many candidates...vote transfer after first preferences..not sure this is going to be as exciting as everyone hopes...

one major caveat; Proportional representation by single transferable vote. It all comes down to how votes are transfered. SF are normally transfer unattractive. FF and FG have possibly fielded too many candidates which dilutes their vote. It will come down to the 8th/10th counts

Strap in folks. Here we go!

It’s not exactly the storming of the Bastille. At best they’ll be a minority party propping up a Fine Gael or Fianna Fáil-led government. Like Labour, the PDs or the Greens before them.
