Tommy Horan has been chosen by the party to contest in Swinford

Aontú select another Mayo candidate for local elections

Kilmovee native Tommy Horan has once again thrown his hat into the ring, announcing his candidacy for the Swinford Local Electoral Area.

A familiar face in the community, Horan aims to build on his past endeavours and make a strong impact in the June’s election.

In the previous 2019 elections, Horan garnered significant support, securing 642 first preference votes.

However, there is a need to amplify efforts this time around, as he will need to target double that tally to stand a solid chance of clinching a seat in the June 7 ballot.

Horan's decision to run again comes as no surprise to those familiar with his extensive track record in community development and activism.

With a background as a Family Support and Community Development Worker at Kilmovee Family Resource Centre, as well as his experience as a successful entrepreneur, Horan brings a unique blend of practical expertise and grassroots insight to the table.
