A hard-left candidate has won a landslide victory in the Irish presidential election, marking a significant shift in Irish politics.

Early tallies in the Irish presidential election show strong support for independent candidate Catherine Connolly, who expressed delight with the results. The election features Connolly, backed by left-wing parties, and Fine Gael candidate Heather Humphreys, with votes being counted across 43 constituencies. The turnout may be low, and the final result will be announced at Dublin Castle.

Voting has concluded in Ireland's presidential election, with early indications suggesting low turnout; the votes will be counted starting Saturday, and the new president will be announced later that day, replacing outgoing President Michael D Higgins.
