McGuinness & Doherty to be eliminated, both are Inishowen candidates so expect both Keaveney and MacLochlainn to benefit.

Gallagher of the Greens, former SF, is out next. Hard to call where his votes will go.

Ian McGarvey is from Milford – Blaney and McHugh to benefit from transfers.

Siobhan McLaughlin is from Buncrana – expect Padraig MacLochlainn to benefit (geography) and Keaveney (gender).

Harte has Letterkenny base, former FG. His transfers will elect McHugh and likely benefit McDaid substantially too.

After that, who knows.
