The councillors who lead the various municipal districts in the county for the next year will be decided this week.

Following the outcome of the local elections in 2019, various political parties formed voting pacts, allowing for the rotation of Cathaoirleach or Mayor positions.

However, all of the predicted outcomes are subject to a vote at each AGM.
