Cllr Ryan O'Meara has secured the endorsement of Cllrs Michael Delaney, Pat Fitzpatrick and Michael McCarthy in his bid to become the Fianna Fáil candidate in North Tipperary / Northwest Kilkenny for the upcoming General Election.
Speaking on Friday after receiving the support of all three County Councillors who represent the Municipal District of Castlecomer, which is being partially incorporated into the new North Tipperary / Northwest Kilkenny constituency in this year's General Election, Cllr Ryan O'Meara said: "I would like to thank Cllrs Michael Delaney, Pat Fitzpatrick and Michael McCarthy for their endorsement and support in advance of the Fianna Fáil selection process to stand for the Party in this area.
"I have worked closely with Deputy Jackie Cahill in the Northwest Kilkenny area since the announcement of the new constituency boundaries last year. I am very grateful to Cllrs Delany, Fitzpatrick and McCarthy for their support and advice to date.
"I have publicly committed to working hard on behalf of the people of Northwest Kilkenny if elected to the Dáil later this year, and I greatly appreciate the endorsement of my Fianna Fáil colleagues in Kilkenny County Council in my bid to secure the nomination to stand for Fianna Fáil."
