    I gave "Meh" both my first and 10th preferences for the locals.
    "Cba" got my vote in the europeans...

    [edit] First time in a long time that I haven't voted. I'm usually fairly responsible, but the whole thing has left me unmoved this time around.

    Local

    I know FF looks weird sandwiched between SF and Lab, but at local level I focus on the candidate and not their party.

    No huge preference this time so my votes went through the numbers to keep out the Greens and then FF where possible.

    Bit slow at the moment, surprisingly enough. And there was I thinking our economy was booming.... :pac:
    Ah no in fairness I understand a lot of the anti-FF sentiment but the FF person I gave my second preference was someone I genuinely thought would be a good person to have on the council.

    That's democracy for you. People may have differing views to you.

    I find Toiréasa a breath of fresh air in Irish politics. She's well educated, well spoken and has policies with which I agree with. Good enough for me.

    I'd say the tallyman is already spreading the news alright :rolleyes:

    LMAO at Declan Ganley. Smart guy though. Although if Internet people voted for FF, what about the idiot on the street? Crap.
