Beyond belief really.

You either have been bought off or have an IQ of under 60 to vote for that guy.

The wicker man remake in Healy-Rae country. They'll be able to give themselves a big Bord Scannan tax free grant.

ps - Is that Jimmy Savile in the line on the right?

Looks like a picture from the Kute Kuntz Klan.

Mayo used to have 6 seats and now is down to 4. Apart from the chunk of South Mayo that was grafted on to Galway West are any.other bits of the county missing from the constituency?

Dunno.

Emigration is probably the biggest factor. Donegal & Kerry also losing seats.

Electorate is 93k. 20k per seat. Should be a 5 seater. Loads of jiggery pokery to give Roscommon (electorate 45k ) 3 seats. Taking south mayo out was the difference.

[armaghniac]

Not that Mayo would steal from Roscommon, of course.
