"Mary Lou McDonald a threat to Catherine Connolly on the left if Sinn Féin decides she'll run"
"Heather Humphreys lives up to rural champion mantle, but underperforms in Dublin"
"You just don't know until, I suppose, the teams take to the pitch and the ball's thrown in."
Mary Lou McDonald could pose a left-wing challenge to Catherine Connolly if Sinn Féin selects her as a candidate. Heather Humphreys maintains a rural champion profile, delivering stronger results in non-urban areas while underperforming in Dublin. The potential Sinn Féin candidacy could alter dynamics on the left and affect vote distribution. Constituency-level performance differences highlight geographic strengths and weaknesses among candidates. Jim Gavin commented on recent Gaelic football rule changes, emphasizing uncertainty about impacts until teams compete and the season progresses.
