Fianna Fáil General Election candidate, Peter 'Chap' Cleere has claimed he has a 'chance' in the race for a seat and he and his campaign team have 'left it all out on the pitch' as Carlow-Kilkenny candidates await the first count in General Election 2024.
Earlier tallies showed the Skeogh councillor on a healthy 10.4% (6,660 first preference votes) as he aims to swap the councillor chamber for the Dáil chamber.
"We'll be there or thereabouts come tomorrow evening (Sunday), there's a huge amount of transfers to go through but look we have a chance," he told Kilkenny Live.
