    Anyone else see the #keepthepoet hashtag....these nutters probably swear that PC voters have all been sucked in by the spoof of an old man!

    Michael D Higgins, the happily married, millionaire champagne socialist!!!! ....and POET!!!!

    Casey no 1 wife voted the same. Any idea when we'll start seeing an indication?

    I'd imagine there is a fair amount of apathy with this election.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,374 ✭✭✭Fanny Wank


    I'd have said an election to choose a figurehead with zero actual power would be the perfect occasion to go down the protest vote route

    2 votes for Casey in the Downwesht house!

    True, sadly true. There's a political depression as of late. Which is a shame, you'd think in light of repealing the 8th and the marriage referendum, more people would be politically enthusiastic.
    Probably isn't helping that the weather is also incredibly sh**e today.

    I wonder who Casey’s second wife voted for?


    ;)


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 35,719 ✭✭✭✭gmisk


    1 vote for Michael D partner voted same.
    2 more yes vote on the blasphemy one.

    Place was like a ghost town... Not sure if that is good or bad for Michael D..

    Auld doll and myself:

    Me: Casey + yes
    Her: Casey + yes

    Exit polls may not be reliable if people don’t want to admit voting for Casey.

    Exit polls have been very reliable in the past here, even on contentious issues.

    No reason to expect different here .

    One thing to note was that there was no sign of desperation from the MDH campaign in the last few days, nor have odds moved today I think?

    MDH won't be defenestrated from the early signs I'm seeing.

    I’ll vote for Casey but wont be admitting it to herself. Not worth getting into the fight over wasting a vote etc.

    How many times have you voted, I thought you were a northern unionist?


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 12,780 ✭✭✭✭ninebeanrows


    Everyone I know voted MDH with a 1 or 2 Caseys

    thats about 10:1 ratio in my circle.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 3,810 ✭✭✭smokingman


    If Casey wins then we're truly living in Trumps Ireland...

    Any chance you could elaborate?

    Has anyone noticed the news is so 'bored' with the presidential election-they're reporting on everything else?

    It's like nobody's even interested. Hard for the electorate to be interested if the media aren't.

    Ya they didn't even bother with many polls in this election either, what gives?

    There’s a media moriatorum in place at the moment, they can’t talk about it. Not until the polls close I think.

    If you’re referring to the overall election campaign, then I think it’s fair to say that it’s been a field of moderate to weak candidates at best. No wonder people aren’t interested.
