This afternoon.
Verona Murphy, who ran as an independent after her deselection by Fine Gael for comments she made about Muslim immigrants during a by-election in Wexford last November, has taken the last seat in the five-seat constituency. Also…
…Sinn Féin’s Johnny Mythen topped the poll, with Labour leader Brendan Howlin, Fianna Fáil’s James Browne and Fine Gael’s Paul Kehoe all elected. Minister of State Michael D’Arcy of Fine Gael lost his seat, as did Fianna Fáil’s Malcolm Byrne who was elected following the by-election last November.

Yesterday.
Main Street, Wexford.
…It was unusual when it comes to a canvas in a county town four days before a by-election, that publicity opportunities would be shunned, but it’s been an unusual campaign for Fine Gael in Wexford.
They [Varadkar and candidate Murphy) largely received a positive reception, with smiles and banter a-plenty between the public and the politicians, although one man in The Book Centre, when asked if he would like to be introduced to the visitors, confided that he would not be seen in such company…

In Wexford?
Ann Power writes:
The opportunity to live life in a full-scale Viking Village is on offer to the public free of charge on Saturday, September 28 in Wexford at the inaugural Viking Fire Festival.
A fully immersive Viking Village experience will take over the Wexford Quayside from 11 am as the historical town will be transformed akin to life over a thousand years ago.
Throughout the day visitors will be able to enjoy coin striking, spinning, weaving, leatherworking, metalwork and woodwork, storytelling and even some slave trading.
