Careful now you don’t get caught out in your criminality. Charlie Haughey’s election agent Pat O’Connor Pat O’Connor was a respected solicitor before he was prosecuted for double voting in the February 1982 election. He never recovered from the shame and ostracism.
That would be astounding if it happens
Just voted there lads. Voting was brisk.

Did you ever pass the driving test?
Heading out the door now. Tis miserable, only dedicated voters would be bothered in this kind of weather.
@Batigol a crisp €5 note is hanging in the balance here.
When will we have exit polls? I’d an early start today keeping the show on the road at DUB so I’m starting to wilt
Exit poll at 10pm I think
Can’t wait until Big Ben bongs.
Do any of you political watchers on here not think SF will be happy with a jump to around 18 to 20% of 1st preference votes? I read earlier they were less than 7% in the 2006 election.
Only thing i didnt know until during the week was they have only 42 candidates, they will have to head north of 50 candidates in the next election to take the next step into government.
There was some listing of fecking Independents in Dublin Bay North, they got nathin off me and neither did FFG.
It depends how you look at it. Yes given they were on 13.8% last time and were not thought to be doing very well until a couple of weeks ago. No given their polls in the last week. Anything from 21% up and they’ll be pretty happy.
