Counting resumes in two Irish parliamentary bye-elections, with ballot boxes opened as results are prepared in Dublin Central and Galway West. Reporting from multiple outlets indicates that the next stage of the count begins after boxes are brought forward for verification and counting. In Galway West, counting is described as continuing into a second day, as officials progress through the vote tallies. In Dublin Central, sources also state that counting is due to get under way or has begun, following the opening of ballot boxes. The outlets provide live-update style coverage, focusing on the procedural steps of the count rather than detailed vote totals. One report notes that a new TD has been elected in Galway West, while other coverage frames the process as ongoing, with counting at the time of reporting. Overall, the agreed picture is that election officials reopen and process ballot boxes for the bye-elections in both constituencies, with results expected to follow once counting completes and transfers and totals are finalised.
