Graphic: Labour may lose out in Dublin North-West, this time round

Labour took two of the three seats in 2011, gaining 43% of the vote, but five years on the constituency is a very different beast, which could see the junior coalition party lose out entirely.

Since 2011, Labour’s main vote winner, Róisín Shortall has left, ultimately finding a home with the newly-formed Social Democrats, and taking with her a seat she is unlikely to lose in 2016.

With Sinn Féin’s long-time TD in the area, Dessie Ellis, also firmly in control of regaining a seat due to his strong base in Finglas and local frustration with a decade of austerity by the main political parties, just one position remains up for grabs.
