The Official TFK Local and European Elections Thread 2024

How on earth is Quinlivan marked 25/1 for mayor? A sitting TD with a profile, pretty well-regarded and SF to help in the county areas.

He could get in with Daly and other transfers if he gets 20%+ first preference.

Your spelling is appalling btw. :grin:

Da fuq did i do?

Made a late breakfast/early lunch out of the voting process. Strolled with my young lad up to the gritty Brookā€™s Cafe on the Artane/Killester/Coolock peace line for pancakes, availed of the ATM to get cash to pay the babysitter tomorrow for the eagerly awaited Two Johnnies concert in St Anneā€™s Park, doubled back to the girlsā€™ schools to vote AodhĆ”n ORiordĆ”in number 1 #ForTheLoveOfDublin, relaxed while the kid played in the school playground with others, dropped him to afterschool then & had a little ramble locally while listening to a Celtic podcast. Back to the desk/couch then to follow up on some work tasks. I look forward to the official TFK exit poll tonight.

Edit: The school had left out sweets in the bathroom.

I voted earlier. Aodhan O Riordan did not get my first preference. I voted for Benny Ogle cos hes a good oul paranoid unionista. Aodhan got second. Cuffe 3.
I voted for the local labour lad cos hes a good skin and does a lot for Porto.

Did you do any canvassing with/for the local Labour lad?

I assume someone here is conducting an exit poll

Iā€™ve voted 3 times so far and the third time I was coming back one of the ballot boys let out an audible ā€œnot this cunt againā€ to much laughter (including myself). Iā€™d say I might be stopped in a round 4 scenario so Iā€™ll get the aul lad to do a few laps of democracy.

I did. Leafletting and canvassing. I was away in Rome the week the posters went up.

The Ireland south European election is possibly the most uninspiring list of candidates Iā€™ve ever seen on a ballot

I just gave Grace the number 1 and left it at that

Grace is a good kid. Proper activist. She was on the Rainbow Warrior when it wasnā€™t safe or fashionable.

You went to Italy, not the champagne region, ergo Prosecco you philistine.

Ahā€¦

That was nicely timed. Iā€™m not a fan of postering.

Any idea exit polls done for this or are they bothered for European?
