General Election 2020 Hub

now stupidly Leo made it an issue and that was shocking PR as he merely radicalised the simpleton
but yes you are correct - Paddy has his knickers in a twist about the RIC… so he’ll go and vote back in FF - the fella who gave him the USC… wow

Louise O’Reilly.

Labour should have given the leadership to Alan Kelly. He’s a bollix but he’d have given them a much better profile over past couple of years.

This is an interesting line, being serious they are losing voters they only borrowed after a monumental collapse from FF 2 elections ago.

Without knowing the numbers from the last 10 Elections for example, is it fair to say they are going to achieve their real % on fair ground per se.

there’ll be a revenge vote here also for queer marriage and abortion
what were the %s for the anti gay and anti abortion votes - would they be solely FF voters ? they’ll love a craic at FG here ., who are the swing voters here tho? any fella complaining about USC and taxes that votes in FF should be sectioned - yeah i presume its because he’s really angry about homelessness,
shinner vote wont be 20% - id say 14-15 as many of them wont vote or will spoil the vote- but they function merely as a protest movement so they will bounce, the RIC thing will do that for them… a vote for SF is a wasted vote as they wont be in power and as an opposition arent taken seriously

That’s a significant variance from the weekend poll

people with very little life experience preferring shinner- radicalised by issues that dont conern them.
its like Israel under netanyahu - numbers the same

About a third of the population in both instances.

Sinn Féin’s number for Leinster outside Dublin looks very high.

there’s an argument to raise the voting age or make it (voting) exclusive to those who operate in higher tax brackets

Agreed. Probably doesn’t bode well for Aontú but it is higher than you’d expect.

they probably stood outside Oriel Park
