Dublin South-Central By-Election Results
The Labour Party has held onto its seat in the Dublin South-Central by-election, but the result was not exactly a ringing endorsement of its candidate. Activists from all parties had feared that turnout for the by-election, necessitated by the death of TD Pat Upton, might only be around 35%. In the actual event it turned out to be even worse, with only 28.1% of eligible voters casting a ballot, the lowest voter turnout in the history of the state. Various explanations were put forward by analysts: people are disgusted with politics in general because of recent well-publicized probes of high-level political corruption, there is often a lack of interest in by-elections to begin with, and there were two European-level soccer matches being televised on voting night that would have kept people at home.
