\nThe results of a TG4\/Ipsos B&A Mayo constituency poll revealed on Nuacht TG4 this evening show current TD and former county footballer Alan Dillon out in front on 17 per cent, reaching the quota and guaranteeing him a seat. He takes outgoing Michael Ring\u2019s place as Fine Gael biggest vote getter in Mayo. <\/p>\n

Following a review of constituencies by the Electoral Commission last year, the constituency boundary has been revised to include all of Mayo, returning to a five-seater with a quota of 17%.
\n 
\nThe results of the constituency poll are:<\/p>\n

In 2020 Fine Gael took two of the four seats \u2013 Michael Ring topped the poll and Alan Dillon edged Michelle Mulherin out for the second Fine Gael seat. The remaining two seats went to Sinn F\u00e9in\u2019s Rose Conway-Walsh and Fianna F\u00e1il\u2019s Dara Calleary. <\/p>\n

A second seat for Fine Gael is very likely again this time round, with the other three Fine Gael candidates performing well; Mark Duffy on 10 per cent, Keira Keogh on 8 per cent and Martina Jennings on 4 per cent. The combined Fine Gael vote in this poll lines up with the party\u2019s vote share in 2020 when they won two seats in what was then a four-seat constituency. However questions remain about the party\u2019s strategy of running four candidates. <\/p>\n

Sinn F\u00e9in\u2019s Rose Conway-Walsh is well positioned to hold her seat with 13 percent of the vote. Sinn F\u00e9in\u2019s total vote in Mayo is 18 per cent (when you add in Gerry Murray\u2019s 5 per cent), which is in line with their national polling figures, but below the 23 per cent the party achieved in 2020.<\/p>\n

Fianna F\u00e1il\u2019s Dara Calleary is on 11 per cent and Lisa Chambers on 10 per cent. Combined, the Fianna F\u00e1il vote is above a quota and they will be challenging for a second seat. <\/p>\n

Independent candidate, Patsy O\u2019Brien is in contention for the final seat, on 7 per cent. Also on 7 per Aont\u00fa\u2019s Paul Lawless has performed above the party\u2019s national showing at 7 percent, and is also in contention for the final seat. <\/p>\n

This TG4\/Ipsos B&A poll was conducted over the phone on Monday and Tuesday of this week (18th and 19thNovember). <\/p>\n
