Nothing dodgy or corrupt about getting his support out. 3000 people were added to the register in Limerick West recently and you can guarantee that he is responsible for most of them They only thing he did wrong was go inside the exclusion zone. I've heard of Irish politiitions in the past providing transport to get elderly supporters to the polls

What we are now witnessing is an exact carbon copy of what happened across the water over the last 20/30 years. Speak to any friends or relatives over there and your eyes will soon be opened. You are right about one thing, they will not be posting money home, their folks will soon be here, and he will have a running mate in the next council election. No surprise that a bunch of shysters like Fianna Fail are facilitating these shenanagins. Goes to show the level they will stoop to in order to regain control of the council.

I presume this gentleman's attempts to do likewise do not stray beyond the bounds of legality or involve the use of firearms. Well, maybe not. He is a Fianna Fail candidate, after all!
