Fianna Fáil concedes defeat in Meath East
Fianna Fáil has conceded defeat in the Meath East by-election with Fine Gael’s Helen McEntee on course to be formally elected to the seat previously held by her late father.
The official result has not been announced but Ms McEntee celebrated her expected win by a margin of about 5% with supporters at the count centre in Ashbourne.
