A local Fianna Fail TD believes the party will put a candidate forward in the presidential election.
Local minister Niamh Smyth says her party is united in believing they need a Fianna Fáil candidate in the upcoming presidential election.
She said her party takes the role of the Presidency and what it means very seriously.
The Cavan-Monaghan TD said she is confident her leader will identify an impressive candidate in the coming weeks.
Speaking to Northern Sound, while she wishes Heather Humphreys very well, the local minister is looking at her own party having a representative for an Aras bid.
