Minister Charlie McConalogue and former Leas Ceann Comhairle and TD Pat the Cope Gallagher have been selected to contest the next general election for Fianna Fáil in Donegal.

This comes after the Fianna Fáil selection convention, to choose the candidates to contest the next General Election, took place yesterday evening in the Clanree Hotel.

Councillor Micheal Naughton, who had also been nominated for selection, missed out after one count of votes.

It is anticipated the General Election will be called either later this year or early in the New Year.
