Made a late breakfast/early lunch out of the voting process. Strolled with my young lad up to the gritty Brook’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 Anne’s Park, doubled back to the girls’ schools to vote Aodhán ORiordáin 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.

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.

willie has been telling people he has a brothel

[Juhniallio]

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?

[ciarancareyshurlingarmy]

And there I was thinking it was a witty jape to misspell immigrant.

[Ralphie]

I assume someone here is conducting an exit poll

[Diabhal]

I’ve voted 3 times so far and the third time I was coming back one of the ballot boys let out an audible “not this cunt again” to much laughter (including myself). I’d say I might be stopped in a round 4 scenario so I’ll get the aul lad to do a few laps of democracy.

[Juhniallio]

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 I’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 wasn’t safe or fashionable.

Lorna bogue who has never left Cork was questioning her green credentials

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

That was nicely timed. I’m not a fan of postering.

[Kyle]

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

[Elvis_Brandenberg_Kr]

The ballot paper for Ireland South is the largest I’ve ever seen and includes an even greater collection of fuckwits than my more manageable ballot paper for Cappamore/Kilmallock.
