#Elections2019: Green Party candidate becomes first elected Irish-Chinese local representative
The first elected councillor in Dublin City has pledged to press for better housing and cycle facilities after topping the poll and becoming the country's first Irish-Chinese local representative.
The Green Party's Hazel Chu won more than double the quota in Pembroke and was elected with 4,069 votes, amid cheers at the count centre from supporters, family and her partner, fellow-councillor Patrick Costello.
