John Moloney eliminated, but counting continues

FIANNA FÁIL’S JOHN MOLONEY has been eliminated in the 11th count in Laois-Offaly, where just one of five seats has been filled (by FG’s Charlie Flanagan). Meanwhile, two revised counts in Galway West have made only the slightest changes to the first count results, but have not seen anyone else elected. The returning officer for Galway West said earlier she could not give a timeline for the results, although results for both Wicklow and Laois-Offaly are expected later tonight.
