A local man has spoken out in defence of Heather Humphreys following her defeat in the presidential election.
Philip Kelly from Magheracloone is a member of the National Executive of Fine Gael.
He says the huge support that Heather Humphreys received in Cavan and Monaghan wasn’t seen across the country.
Mr Kelly said it was a pity that she didn’t receive the same level of support in other areas.
