We would nearly be able to set up a five-a-side hurling or football team between all the counties we have represented here.
On prevailing side: this member voted with the winning side in 66 of 66 decisive votes (0 abstentions excluded). Read it as a government-or-opposition indicator rather than a measure of influence — the figure is near 100% for members supporting the government of the day and near 0% for those opposing it.
This is the point of the site: contributions keep the party held on the day, not the one held now.

She eliminated me from the show, not that I am holding it as a grudge.
I join the Senator in remembering Lisa as the former Leader of the House and her great service, not just to this House, but to Mayo, and also Paddy Burke, who was a great servant of the Seanad for nearly one third of its existence, which is an extraordinary record by any standard. He was a great adviser to me in this role.
Fierce honesty from Senator Mullen.
I am not sure whether it was John B. Keane who said that a Kerry person with an inferiority complex is a Kerry person who thinks he is just as good as everybody else. I thank the Senator for his words. There used to be five Kerry Senators here once upon a time. We are reduced in numbers at the moment but I am sure we will be back in force.
If I have missed anyone, please indicate, but at the moment, the last speaker on my list is Senator Kelleher.
Wait until the championship. That is all I will say.
There is one final speaker who just indicated. I call Senator Maria McCormack.
