Gardai Investigating Voter-Registration promo

People here are saying that The Gardai are "encouraging" a yes vote with someone from the yes side by doing a photoshoot to say to any voter to go on the supplementary register to vote in May. I don't see that at all tbf.

To me; it would not make a blind bit of difference if a photoshoot was to include people from both the yes and no campaign including either a Garda, a civil servant outside of the Gardai or any other official involved who is appointed for the Referendum Commission. All of these organisations have a responsibility to ensure that many potential voters as possible do not get left out whenever a referendum or election takes place which applies to anyone who is an Irish resident and who is aged 18 or over.

The photos of the promotional tables in the lead up to this referendum is probably done in any referendum or election beforehand. Up to today I have never heard any sort of negative reaction from people of a scale in were they would go against Gardai for handing out registration forms for say the last European or Local elections.

There is another bit of info in where the Gardai have to hand out forms for voter registration in Dublin.

Crosscare is a lay Catholic organisation in Dublin that provided a voter registration period for people living around the Dun laoghaire area who wanted to be on the supplementary register for the vote in May.

And guess what; it says in the poster that a Garda had to be present in the handing out of the registry forms to people of any age who wanted their name to be put on the supplementary register regardless of their age even though it was held in The Boylan Centre. To be fair; I don't know what the reaction from here if a Guard was known to be present at a location in which in the organisation itself actively promotes a no vote for the marriage referendum because it is part of the Catholic Church.

Let more mud slinging begin I say.
