Your support helps us to tell the story
From reproductive rights to climate change to Big Tech, The Independent is on the ground when the story is developing. Whether it's investigating the financials of Elon Musk's pro-Trump PAC or producing our latest documentary, 'The A Word', which shines a light on the American women fighting for reproductive rights, we know how important it is to parse out the facts from the messaging.
At such a critical moment in US history, we need reporters on the ground. Your donation allows us to keep sending journalists to speak to both sides of the story.
The Independent is trusted by Americans across the entire political spectrum. And unlike many other quality news outlets, we choose not to lock Americans out of our reporting and analysis with paywalls. We believe quality journalism should be available to everyone, paid for by those who can afford it.
Your support makes all the difference.Irish centre-right party Fine Gael looks set to lead the next government - but without an overall majority, according to an exit poll in the Irish general election.
The party recorded 36.1% support - its highest result since November 1982 - according to the Millward Brown Lansdowne study commissioned by broadcaster RTE.
Labour, which hopes to be in coalition with Fine Gael, is on 20.5 per cent, its best ever share of the vote.
Outgoing ruling party Fianna Fail is on a record low of 15.1 per cent.
Sinn Fein's support is put at 10.1 per cent, with outgoing coalition partners the Greens on 2.7% with the Independents and others polling 15.5 per cent.
The exit poll interviewed 3,500 voters after casting their ballots outside polling stations across 43 constituencies Friday.
