    ...would you vote the same way you did in the previous one?

    Personally I would vote differently based on the current shenanagins between the main political parties.

    I'm not looking for a discussion on any of the parties or their manefesto's, simply to see if there would be a different result if another election was called.

    Would you change the way you voted? 39 votes

    Yes

    Probably wouldn't bother voting this time. Shower of useless bastards the lot of them.

    I think if I had given some higher preferences to FG or FF, I would reduce or exclude them the next time. But I didn't, so it won't really change my vote at all.

    I'd vote the same way.

    Unsure what the two big party's hope to achieve by the current arse boxing they're both partaking in.

    All's I see possibly happening by a second election is FF slightly bypassing FG in the vote share, current roles reversed and arse boxing round two.

    **Ding ding** round 2....

    . Just get on with the inevitable grand coalition ya flamin bunch of galahs!

    Nothing has changed to make me vote FF or SF, so it'll be more of the same.

    Given I didn't vote for either of them last time or the "Murder Inc" party so my vote will stay the same next time out and yes if you can you should get out and vote.

    Welcome to Ireland - where when we vote, we're sometimes told we did it wrong and made do it again (Lisbon Treaty) or when our government just acts like kids and refuses to work together, possibly prompting another election.

    Sinn Fein should be hammered for their stance next time around, but won't.


    Fianna Fail also had a chance to push this forward but are as usual only interested in Fianna Fail. Trying to play both sides of the fence.

    Halt their pay/expenses until a Government is formed, and see how quickly they start agreeing with each other.
