23rd April 2026 - Fine Gael Press Office
The Lord Mayor of Dublin, Councillor Ray McAdam has called on the people of Dublin Central to give him their number one vote in the May 22nd bye-election.
Councillor McAdam has extensive experience across 17 years as a city councillor and says he is ready to hit the ground running and put the experience to work to continue to deliver for the people of Dublin Central.
“The people of Dublin Central deserve an experienced voice in Dáil Éireann, someone who knows how to get things done and has a proven track record of representing the community. I’m asking for support from the people of Dublin Central on May 22nd.
“I have been accessible to people across Dublin Central for the last 17 years and worked hard on the ground to deliver.
“We face challenges in the constituency, from housing to law and order to childcare, but I am ready to continue my work and take on these challenges in the Dáil.
“My campaign is about the future of Dublin Central, a focus on service, common decency and stronger communities. My priorities include increasing community policing and delivering housing across the constituency.
“I look forward to the campaign ahead and meeting people right across Dublin Central over the next few weeks.”
The campaign in Dublin Central is well underway with 1,500 posters being erected and 55,000 leaflets delivered across the constituency. Canvasses have been carried out right across Dublin Central with a large canvass of over 40 people held in Glasnevin last week and another big canvass organised for this weekend.
Director of Elections, Minister Neale Richmond said, “In Councillor Ray McAdam, Fine Gael are running the most experienced candidate with the best track record of actual delivery for Dublin Central.
“We will be running a high energy, positive campaign that will build on the track records of both Ray and Paschal Donohoe.”
Councillor McAdam is calling on supporters and voters across Dublin Central, from East Wall to Drumcondra, from North Strand to Cabra, to come out and vote number one Ray McAdam on Friday, May 22nd.
