Ireland's Election: Exit Polls Indicate Tight Race and Coalition Prospects
TL;DR Summary
The Irish general election exit poll shows a close race between Prime Minister Simon Harris's Fine Gael party and Sinn Fein, both securing around 21% of first-preference votes. Despite Harris's early election call to capitalize on Fine Gael's previous surge in support, the party's backing has declined, with Harris trailing behind rivals Micheal Martin of Fianna Fail and Mary Lou McDonald of Sinn Fein in popularity for the next Taoiseach. The election outcome remains uncertain, but a coalition between Fine Gael and Fianna Fail is still considered the most likely government formation.
