|October 27, 2025
Left-wing independent Catherine Connolly, who secured the backing of Ireland's left-leaning parties including Sinn Féin, has won the country’s presidential election in a landslide victory against her center-right rival.

Official results showed strong voter support for Connolly as president, a largely ceremonial role in Ireland.
She won 638 of first-preference votes once spoiled votes were excluded, compared to 298 of her rival Heather Humphreys, of the center-right party Fine Gael.
UAE President His Highness Sheikh Mohamed Bin Zayed Al Nahyan sent a message of congratulations to Connolly on winning the election.
