It will likely be tomorrow before an official announcement is made, but Clare TD Michael McNamara remains on course to secure a move to Brussels. The Scariff deputy is currently lying third in the running in the Ireland South Constituency having amassed over 62,500 votes on the eleventh count. Aontú's Patrick Murphy, who is also the CEO of the Ireland South-West Fisheries Board, has just been eliminated and 17,000 of his votes are currently being distributed. As it stands, Cratloe's Eddie Punch, who is the former General Secretary of the ICSA, and Labour's Niamh Hourigan, are next in line to be excluded. Clare FM's Jamie O'Hara who's at the Nemo Rangers count centre has been telling Clare FM's Daragh Dolan that Deputy McNamara should benefit significantly from the transfers to come.
