The vote between Fianna Fáil presidential election hopefuls Billy Kelleher and Jim Gavin could end up being “very, very tight” as attention turns to those who have not declared for a candidate.
The Fianna Fáil parliamentary party will meet in Leinster House from 11:30am on Tuesday morning to hear the Cork MEP and the former Dublin GAA boss pitch for the presidency.
