Robert Briscoe, the only Jewish member of the Irish Parliament, who has held office continuously since 1927, has been re-elected, according to official tabulations released today.
Briscoe, a Revisionist Zionist, ran on the government party ticket and was re-elected after a campaign in which his opponent, Sean McBride, used anti-Semitic propaganda in an attempt to defeat him.
