The Irish Presidential Election: Count Day
... the official counting has yet to begin, but it's (literally) already over bar the counting.

Re: The Irish Presidential Election: Count Day
Well, we won't have any of the following as our new Presidente:
A former leader of the IRA
A bagman for the discredited ex-government party, whose only real prior claim to fame was to be one of the Dragons in the Irish version of Dragons Den*
A fomer Eurovision winner turned Bible thumper
A gay senator & Joycean (he probably won't even get enough votes to recover his deposit, which is a real pity)
... among others
Instead, we'll get a thoroughly reliable career politician, who is both intelligent and articulate. And he's also from my constituency.
* The runaway leader in the opinion polls until the last TV debate on Monday night, when he got ambushed by the IRA man.
