Update: Mary T Sweeney has been granted a recheck of Niall McConnell’s votes if she decides to proceed
Aontú’s Mary T Sweeney is seeking a recount in Donegal.
She has just been eliminated on the 11th count.
However, three votes separate herself and the next candidate with the lowest number of votes – John McNulty, Fine Gael.
She has been consulting her party leader Peadar Toibin on the matter.
Will she be granted it considering she is not in contention for a seat?
