Nice to have this information here -- in fact, it's what I came to the article looking for. But two small issues:
Needs a source;
Each round needs to add up to (no more than) the size of the electorate.
Fourth tally of 50+22 is clearly wrong, as there are 71 eligible voters. (I won't make the obvious joke.) Smartiger (talk) 04:41, 27 January 2011 (UTC)Reply
Referenced now, plus explanation of number of voters, which was 72 because Jimmy Devins had rejoined the parliamentary party the day before. Snappy (talk) 08:14, 27 January 2011 (UTC)Reply
All the previous rounds were listed as totalling to 71, so it was pretty clear that something was very wrong. Curious... Smartiger (talk) 15:19, 27 January 2011 (UTC)Reply
I've added another reference (from Irish Independent), hope this clarifies things for you. Snappy (talk) 19:09, 27 January 2011 (UTC)Reply
Those sources seem perfectly sufficient, thank you; and more importantly (to my mind, if not Wikipedia's...), each round now adding up to the same total! Smartiger (talk) 22:04, 29 January 2011 (UTC)Reply
