Fergus O’Rourke is the latest candidate to throw his name into the hat for the upcoming Macra elections.
The Leitrim Macra man has declared he will run for the Northwest vice president position.
He is the second person to declare for the position, after Mayo’s Shane Quigley announced his intention to run.
To date, Leinster looks to be the most contentious area, with four people in the running for the VP position there.
