Whether you want to follow on the RTÉ News Now app or on rte.ie/election on desktop or mobile, RTÉ Online is your one-stop shop for all the election coverage you could want and more.

With results, breaking news, live streams and rolling blogs, analysis, images, videos and social media, we’ve got you covered.

We’ll have a live blog highlighting all the biggest stories on the national stage, but since all politics is local, we’ll also have live blogs for each of the individual constituencies on Saturday, where you can follow all the key developments in your area.

You can also follow the main developments on our central Twitter feed, @rtenews, where we’ll have breaking news, videos, photos and graphics.

If you’re feeling more parochial, there are also Twitter accounts for each of the 40 constituencies on the RTÉ News Twitter account.

For those of you who think tweeting is for the birds, you can join us on Facebook, or if pretty pictures are more your thing we’ll have coverage on Instagram too.
