I honestly have no idea.

FF - no way..obviously

FG - Not again

LAB - Never again!!

AAA - I get the impression they will fight for the dole scroungers and seek to give them even more than they already get while still leaving the middle men, like me, in the sh1t.

SF - Not a fan of their plans which haven't been thought through.

Independents - Most likely will vote for one of them...purely out of the above process of elimination. That said, I have never heard of these guys, one of whom is only 20 years old - no thanks.

It's a piss poor choice, but we need to send a message to the current government by voting anyone but them!

I think the AAA are just trying to go with what people don't want like the water tax and house tax. They are just saying its not right(which it's not) but they don't suggest how to get the money. They just say tax the rich. They don't say how

Are they a branch of sinn fein? They seem to have the same ideas and don't seem to have fully thought this through. I've also checked out their candidates on SDCC website, they're either unemployed/working class...which is fine..but I want a country run by professionals/people who have proven themselves in the private sector. Isn't that why our glorious leader's salaries are so high - to "attract the best and brightest??!!".

Honestly i feel that this entire election is a disgrace. I want to vote, but i don't want to vote for any of these low quality candidates. In the private sector you wouldn't get a job simply because you're the best of a bad bunch.

I think your right on the partys and i think the AAA are just giving reasons not to support this and fight this but they dont give any way to get the debt down. That leaves the independents. Burke and kelly. I think im going to go for burke with kelly no2. dont know what ill vote after that though. It will be interesting to see what people vote for Id say
FG-1
ff- 1
lab -0
sinn 2
aaa 1
Independent 1

What do you think will get in

Regardless of Party, Karen Warren is a great candidate. Missed out the last time, narrowly. Hopefully she goes all the way this time.

In fairness to Declan Burke (Independent) You have to admire a young guy of 21 getting out there and putting himself forward. He cant be much worse that the old fogies who got us into this mess

Johnnyhpipe

I won't be giving my vote to someone who "can't be any worse than the others"

I think generally that it is important to get young enthusiastic people involved in politics. We seem to keep voting in the same old Party Hacks, whose only inspiration is the Party Whip

Polling day lads and ladies . Polls open till 10 tonight I believe
It will be intresting to hear the results and how they compare to this poll
Burke seamed to win it with warren in second and as I say many predicted aaa splitting their own vote
