This election might show if SF have maxed out their vote last time.

Hard to tell with a low turnout, they could maybe get more hunted out the next time.

I see Pat Sheehan (good mate of mine) hasn't got in on the first vote in West Belfast, Maskey and McCann in on first vote. Pat Took over from Gerry, I thought he would have got in on first vote

Is Pat Took related to his namesake Barry?

The English police are out.   :-* :-*

Something just doesn't read right there. Gerry Adams isn't running anymore. Pat Sheehan is a new candidate for Sinn Fein.

Did i say Gerry was running for a seat in West Belfast?
No, you didn't. It is a bit much to say that he (Barry) Took over from Gerry Adams though, imo. He is a political newbie.

Who's Barry?

Bucko in West Tyrone has a "Sweet Child of Mine" ringtone. He's about 50. Grim.
Was that not the electoral officer? Welcome to the Jungle would have been more appropriate. Seems like a complete farce in Omagh all day.

Latest on Twitter feed is that Alliance transfers will ensure 2 UUP and 1 SDLP in Upper Bann and SF to miss out on second seat.

Worth a watch!

He couldn't come across as any more of a w**ker. Round about 40 seconds in there's a faint shout of "No Surrender"  :D :D :D

The only talking point in this election is whether unionist parties get more than 50% of the vote.
Presently SF + SDLP are about 41.1% and neither side parties (Alliance etc) are about 9.5%, so it seems that they will not. Although turnout is low everywhere, there might still be some turnout effects whereas turnout was lowest in E Antrim and higher West of the Bann.
If at first you don't succeed, then goto Plan B

Apologies, the last time i checked http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/special/election2011/constituency/html/36724.stm they had McGibbon elected.

Interesting that SF take more than twice the votes of SDLP in this and end up with the same number of seats.
