Clare TD Claims Presidential Result "Clear Anti-Government Vote"
Update: 2025-10-28
Description
Clare's opposition TD claims the Presidential Election result shows a resounding anti-government mandate. Independent Candidate Catherine Connolly coasted to victory on Saturday, amassing over 61% of Clare's first preference vote and over 914,000 ballots nationally, which is the highest total in Irish electoral history. A targeted 'Spoil The Vote' campaign also made its mark, with 13% of all ballots cast nationwide ultimately being invalid; another national record. Shannon Sinn Féin Deputy Donna McGettigan, however, believes voter discontent is with the coalition.
