A full recheck will take place this morning in the Midlands Northwest European constituency.
There's just 275 votes separating Independent Marian Harkin and Fianna Fáil's Pat the Cope Gallagher from obtaining the last Irish seat in Europe.
It follows the announcement of SF's Matt Carthy's surplus votes-after he secured the third seat in the constituency alongside Independent Luke Ming Flanagan and Fine Gaels Mairead McGuinness.
Meanwhile, all four seats have now been filled in the Ireland South constituency.
Fianna Fáil's Brian Crowley topped the poll, Sinn Féin's Liadh NiRiada came second, former GAA boss Sean Kelly won the third seat, while last night Fine Gael's Deirdre Clune secured the fourth seat with just over 4,000 votes more than her party colleague Simon Harris.
