| Election Results : Counting under way in Monaghan election |
Counting is under way in the Monaghan local election that was cancelled last month.
The vote in the Ballybay-Clones area was postponed after the sudden death of the Fine Gael candidate Owen Bannigan.
Six
councillors will be selected in the election, from a pool of 11
candidates. Final results are expected to be known by 6pm this evening.
The
Monaghan Co Council is waiting on the results from the area to
determine its final make-up. Currently, the council has five Sinn Féin
councillors, three Fianna Fáil, and two each of Fine Gael and
Independents.
