Senator Frank Feighan has announced his intention to contest the next election in the Sligo-Leitrim constituency following Tuesday’s publication of the Constituency Commission’s recommendations.
• “The Commission has recommended that some population in the North of County Roscommon should be added to form the four seat Sligo-Leitrim constituency. Sligo and Leitrim will continue to include some population from south Donegal. “I believe that I am well placed to contest the next election in this reconfigured constituency as I believe it is very favourable for a North Roscommon candidate.
• “I have already succeeded in two General Elections from a North Roscommon base and I look forward to working towards achieving a second seat for the party in the next General Election.”
