The long wait to Council 2014

At the end of Count Six, with Francis O'Rourke's votes distributed, there was no further candidate elected, writes Brian Byrne. The next lowest candidate's votes — Martin Byrne of DDI — are now being distributed and the proceedings will close until 9.30 tomorrow morning to resume with Count Seven.

It's a waiting game for five more candidates, who include seasoned veterans Billy Hillis (FG) and Willie Callaghan (FF), pictured above with their families.

It's a long haul yet.
