Title: Unashamed electioneering and promotion
Post by: Declan on July 19, 2012, 05:03:10 PM

Folks I'm involved with this years Dunshaughlin Harvest festival which is a local initiative started last year to boost local businesses and community involvement. Part of our fundraiser is a Harvest Queen contest with text votes costing €1 so if you could vote for this lady's campaign it'd be much appreciated.

Sent in a few.
Think her lack of mention about her love of GAA might go against her in that neck of the woods !
Plus her heritage (not the aussie part!!) ;)

best of luck

If your involved with the festival is it not a conflict of interest to be openly promoting one of the contestents ? Are you on the judging panel?

If news of this gets out, there will be controversy. Memories of the craggy island lovely girls competition.

Certainly not on the judging panel.
No conflict of interest at all. All part of the fundraising effort

Lovely girls indeed
