Tóibín was first elected to the Dáil as a Sinn Féin TD in 2011. He became an Independent in 2013 and returned to Sinn Féin the following year. He was re-elected as a party member in 2016. He quit the party again in 2019 over his views on abortion to establish his own party, Aontú. He is the party's leader. He was first co-opted onto Navan Town Council in 2007.

I'm asking people to vote for me on the basis of the work I have done for Co Meath. I am a member of various local boards and campaigns.

My number one priority is investing in jobs in Co Meath and for rail lines to be built in the county.

I would negotiate a ministerial position, become the Minister for Transport and ease the transport crisis for people in Meath.
