Local MEP Luke 'Ming' Flanagan says Catherine Connolly's personality traits make her the best option to be Ireland's next President. Connolly is one of three confirmed candidates that will run for residency in Áras an Uachtaráin, alongside Fianna Fail's Jim Gavin and Fine Gael's Heather Humphreys.
Millionaire businessman Gareth Sheridan needs two more nominations from local authorities to enter the running. However, Flanagan said Connolly's calming influence makes her the ideal candidate.
