No place for Dolan on ticket as Fine Gael selects Cllr John Naughten and Dympna Daly-Finn to contest Roscommon-Galway
Sat, Sep 21, 2024
Councillor John Naughten and Dympna Daly-Finn have been selected by Fine Gael to represent the party in the Roscommon-Galway constituency at the next General Election.
It had been expected that Ballinasloe's FG senator Aisling Dolan would have been selected on the ticket after her high profile work in the area in recent years.
Instead party members selected Cllr Naughten and Ms Daly-Finn at the convention held in the Abbey Hotel, Roscommon, which was chaired by Maria Walsh MEP.
