Jim Gavin and Billy Kelleher will go 'toe-to-toe' to decide who represents Fianna Fail for the Presidency.
The party's picked them both to go forward for the selection process.
By close of nominations last night, Jim Gavin and MEP Billy Kelleher were nominated to proceed to the selection process by Fianna Fail, to decide which of them will run in the Presidential election.
It comes after Joanna Donnelly announced she was pulling out of the race for the presidency.
She has thanked people for their kind words and support after she revealed she was withdrawing on social media.
She says she was naive and unprepared.
Earlier, Bertie Ahern ruled himself out of the race for the Fianna Fáil nomination.
Local authorities will begin hearing pitches from Presidential hopefuls on Monday.
