O Brien added to Fianna Fail ticket for local elections

Councillor David O’Brien will join Arthur McDonald and PJ Kavanagh to represent Fianna Fail in the local elections.

A former Independent, Councillor O’Brien rejoined the party two weeks ago and has been added to the party’s ticket for the coming local elections.

The Bagensltown councillor had been a Fianna Fail candidate before running as an Independent in the 2009 elections when he failed to secure a place.

He told KCLR that he has maintained a good working relationship with other party members and was encouraged to put his name forward for the party ticket.
