Without a doubt Labour will get elected again. It is so obvious. Even though people go on about how they shouldn't be elected they always seem to prve people wrong!

324 seats needed to win

LAB 353

I look through this list and tbh it makes me depressed....i know things are changeing for the better in Northern Ireland, but looking at that list you would never know it, each and everyone a hardliner....looks like the hard road ahead politically for Northern Ireland for the foreseeable future.......

EDIT: ok there are 3 SDLP candidates elected...the rest are seriously hardline.......
