A by-election for a seat from the Galway West constituency in the Dáil Éireann, the lower house of the Irish parliament, is expected to take place sometime in 2026 to fill the vacancy left by the election of Catherine Connoly as President of Ireland. This market will resolve according to the candidate who wins the by-election for this Galway West seat in the Irish Dáil Éireann. If voting does not take place in this election or the election results are not definitively known by March 31, 2027, 11:59 PM ET, this market will resolve to "Other". The resolution source for this market will be a consensus of credible reporting. In case of ambiguity, this market will resolve solely based on the official election results published by the Irish government, specifically the Irish parliament or “Oireachtas” (https://www.oireachtas.ie/en/elections/).With the Galway West Dáil by-election set for May 22 following Catherine Connolly's presidential victory, trader consensus on Polymarket positions Independent Ireland's Noel Thomas as the frontrunner at 43.5% implied probability, ahead of Fine Gael's Seán Kyne at 32.4%, reflecting Thomas's momentum in the latest TG4 poll where he surged to 16% (+7 versus 2024 general election share) amid local appeals on immigration and fuel protests. Kyne's slim poll lead at 17% has narrowed post a May 12 report alleging his involvement in a blackmail scandal against a former agency CEO, eroding government party support. Fragmented field with 17 candidates, including Labour's Helen Ogbu (12% in poll, 7.6% market) and Social Democrats' Míde Nic Fhionnlaoich (10.4%), makes PR-STV transfers decisive amid housing crisis debates and voter apathy.
