A local councillor for Birr, on Offaly County Council, he was first elected in 2009 as an Independent. He was re-elected topping the poll in 2014.[1] Leahy joined Renua at its foundation in 2015 and stood unsuccessfully in the 2016 general election. He was eliminated on the fifth count with 6,588 votes. Leahy was elected leader of Renua on 3 September 2016, succeeding Lucinda Creighton.[2] Prior to being leader of Renua, Leahy worked as a GAA Coaching and Games Promotion Officer,[3] he has also contributed as a hurling analyst on Midlands 103.[4] Leahy voiced his support for the legalisation of prostitution in Ireland in an interview with Hot Press. In the same interview stated his belief that "all religions are equal" and spoke of losing his virginity (at age 21), along with other personal details of his life.[5] Following Peter Casey's performance in the 2018 presidential election, there were reports that Leahy would step aside should Casey decide to join Renua. Leahy later clarified that "I’ve no plan to stand down," adding "but if he wants to come in and help out, I’ve no difficulties with that."[6] External links
