In the wake of a tightly contested election, Ireland's ruling parties, Fine Gael and Fianna Fail, appear poised to maintain their coalition government, defying the trend of shifting away from incumbents seen in other countries. With projections indicating they could secure over 80 seats in the 174-seat Dail, they may need to ally with smaller parties or independents to achieve a majority. The election outcome reflects the continued dominance of both parties in Irish politics, despite rising challenges from Sinn Fein, which has been gaining popularity among voters.
