A new first count has been issued for the Newbridge local electoral area in the Kildare County Council elections.

It won't change the outcome of what we know already - that five councillors have been elected.

The changes have been made following a second recount.

A handful of votes have bene taken off or added to the first count as it affects 8 of the 14 candidates. In most cases  the first preference changes by only a single vote. The biggest impact was on Peggy O'Dwyer who lost three votes - but she is still well in excess of the quota.
