or down to the Three Arena in Dublin Port.

14 hopefuls battling it out to replace Pascal Donoghue.

Gerry the Monk Hutch just missed out on a seat in 2024.

Can he pull off a surprise today?

Or will the Mary Lunatics show out and push Janice Boylan into the Dáil?

Or can the Sock Dems become the fourth largest party in the Dáil through former League of Ireland footballer Daniel Ennis?

The West was awake last November as Catherine Connolly romped home in the presidential election.

Who's going to take her Dáil seat today?

In a constituency that sprawls from Galway City out through Connemara up to Clifton and Cornemona, can Fine Gael pull off that rare thing, a government by-election win?

Or will independent Ireland's Noel Thomas rally the protest vote to enter the Dáil?

And in the constituency that this fledgling left-wing alliance was born, can it see home a seat for the left or see a blow to their chances of a lefty government in 2029?

Leaders under pressure, lots to play for and a long count expected over this weekend.

I will bring you all the latest through the weekend on News Talk through our reporters in the constituencies.

And that's where we're starting this morning.

We're going to go now to the RDS where our chief reporter Barry White is there.

Obviously, Barry, early days yet, boxes literally only just opened.

But what's the atmosphere like there and any news from Dublin Central so far?

Sean, good morning.

Yeah, look, counting is literally now just underway in the Dublin Central by-election for the Dáil seat vacated by former Fine Gael Finance Minister Pascal Donoghue.

Ballot boxes just opened six minutes ago following voting yesterday between 7am and 10pm.
