He has taken the third seat for Tipperary South in the 2024 General Election
Seamus Healy has been elected to the Dáil following the sixth count for Tipperary South.
The Tipperary candidate will take back a seat in the Dáil, having failed to be elected in 2020.
Healy was elected with 9,601 votes, after a lengthy battle with Sinn Féin's Martin Browne, who's transferred votes pushed him over the edge to surpass those of Fianna Fáil's Imelda Goldsboro.
Healy arrived to the count centre early on Saturday morning, and remained in the centre throughout the duration of the count.
