Tight Three-Way Race in Ireland's 2024 Election Amid Key Issues

TL;DR Summary
An exit poll from the Irish general election indicates a tight race among Sinn Féin, Fine Gael, and Fianna Fáil, with first preference votes at 21.1%, 21%, and 19.5% respectively. The poll, conducted by Ipsos B&A, suggests a close contest similar to the 2020 election, with no party likely to secure an outright majority. Official vote counting begins Saturday, with results expected over the weekend. The outcome could see Fine Gael and Fianna Fáil potentially forming a government with smaller parties, while Sinn Féin's path to power remains challenging.
