More than half of the seats at stake in the Irish general election have been filled, following what has been a historic result for Sinn Féin.

The outcome was described as "something of a revolution in the ballot box" by the party's leader Mary Lou McDonald.

With all first preferences counted, the left-wing republican party has taken 24.5% of the vote, compared to 22% for Fianna Fáil and 21% for Fine Gael.

No one party will win enough seats for an outright majority.

About 100 of the 160 seats have been declared, but negotiations to establish a government could be prolonged.
