Connolly is projected to become the third female president of Ireland and the first to hail from County Galway.

She has been active in politics for many years as a city councillor, TD, and was elected as the first female Leas-Cheann Comhairle in 2020.

Connolly ran her presidential campaign as a strong advocate for the Irish language and Ireland’s neutrality.
