Enniskillen by-election vote-counting underway

Counting in the Enniskillen council by-election gets underway today following the death of the DUP's Joe Dodds - father of the party's deputy leader, Nigel Dodds.

Six candidates contested the election, including DUP minister Arlene Foster who is aiming to keep the seat in an area almost equally divided between unionists and nationalists.

There are splits in both camps and the count may turn out to be a long one.

The result is due in the early afternoon.
