Niall Collins (Fianna Fáil) has taken the final seat in Limerick County.

We ask, how well do you know your local TD?

First elected to the Dáil in 2007, Mr Collins was re-elected for Limerick County in 2011, 2016, and 2020 and has served as Minister of State for Skills and Further Education since July 2020.

It's in the family for Niall Collins, as two of his uncles and his grandfather were Limerick-based TDs before him.

Mr Collins made a rapid rise from a council seat in 2004 to topping the poll in Limerick West in 2007 with a 25.7% vote share. He was one of few FF candidates to perform well in 2011, winning the highest first preference vote (9,361) in Limerick County.

Skip ahead to October 2019, and Mr Collins was embroiled in the 'Votegate' controversy, when it was revealed that he had voted six times on behalf of his party colleague Timmy Dooley, who was absent from the Dáil chamber during a weekly voting bloc.

Both men were subsequently demoted from Fianna Fáil's frontbench.

Despite the fallout from 'Votegate', Mr Collins took the first of three seats in the 2020 election and he polled fewer first preference votes than Fine Gael's Patrick O'Donovan.
