Sherlock: Maher a contender for 2020 General Election

The performance of Labour's John Maher has marked him out as a contender for 2020, according to Labour TD Sean Sherlock.

Mr Sherlock spoke positively about Mr Maher's run in the by-election. He had been elected as a Councillor for the first time in May and, according to the Cork-East TD, if Maher had a longer run-up, he could have done even better.
