Eamon Ryan's bid for a European seat in Dublin has failed.
The Green Party leader had requested a recount in the early hours of this morning, after he missed out on a seat in the constituency by just over 1,000 votes.
It means that Fine Gael's Brian Hayes and Independent Nessa Childers have now officially been elected, coming in behind Sinn Féin's Lynn Boylan who topped the poll last night.
Meanwhile, in Ireland South, Fianna Fáil's Brian Crowley was elected on the first count. It is the fifth time he has been returned for the party.
The remaining European constituency, Midlands North-West has just returned Independent Luke Ming Flanagan.
The first seat in that constituency was claimed by Lynn Boylan of Sinn Féin - with the second and third seats deemed to have been won by Independent Nessa Childers and Fine Gael's Brian Hayes respectively.

Elsewhere, less than .0 council seats around the country remain to be decided - with Labour sliding to just 7% nationally, half its figure from the last local elections in 2009.
