Who are people voting for an why?

Raphael

You're missing Simon Gillespie (Sinn Fein, Student) and Deirdre Donnelly (Ind, Journalist), though they may have gotten on the ballot after your post.

I'm planning on giving my first 3 preferences, in some as yet undecided order, to:

Miriam Hennessy, because I like the Greens on local issues,
Jospeha Madigan, because I spoke to her and she seems like a sensible person,
John Kennedy, because he has some nice ideas on electoral reform, and he's a software engineer (yay bias).

4-6 will go to Deirdre, then Barry, then Caitriona.

No preference to:
Either FF candidates, because I have memory past the last 3 years,
Simon Gillespie, because I'm not keen in SF, and he's very Gaeilge oriented, which doesn't concern me at all,
Richard Humphries, because I spoke to him and he didn't impress me. And I normally vote Labour.

Thanks for the update, spoke to Deirdre Donnelly and at the moment is probably going to get my Number 1 also because she doesn't have an association with a party, which is always good in my eyes.

The rest is up in the air, Though I have written John Kennedy and Richard Humphries, because he is a software engineer that has not embraced the internet in his campaign and for someone that is of the age and is in the business I would have expected more.

Richard Humphries because of this

from his facebook page

14 February near Dublin
Happy V-day to all facebook friends!

Hey Humphries your cut!

Kennedy has a website at least, and a nice looking one. He's very quiet on social media though, no twitter account and not a lot happening on his Facebook page.

What's Deirdre's pitch like? Any particular key issues (other than property tax, water charges and the ****ing swimming pool, which everyone and their mother is on about)
