Daniel Ennis of the Social Democrats topped the Dublin Central first-preference count with about 19.7 percent, while Sinn Féin's Janice Boylan placed second on about 17.7 percent. Counting finished with transfers set to determine the final winner. The by-election fills the Dublin Central seat vacated by Fine Gael TD Paschal Donohoe. Ennis's strong first-preference showing gives the Social Democrats an early advantage and raises the stakes for Sinn Féin to win transfers in this urban constituency.
