General Election 2024

[RedHand88]

Sadly there are too many Gen Z and Millenials (I am one) more concerned with Trump than voting here.

A lot of the older people interviewed by RTE were happy with things. That's it.

100% this. Alot of them would know Trump but couldn't name you Simon Harris.

Probably best that those people don't vote then, no?

SF-FF-FG government?

[Pub Bore]

I think it's going to be very difficult to form a stable government. It's looking like 4 parties to make a coalition and FG and the Soc Dems aren't natural bedfellows. Another election...??

Would that give you anything more stable ?

Yeah any normal person in charge of FF does a deal there. He did say he wouldnt go in with FG the last time though so who knows.

FF/SF,Aontu? How close would that be?

If there's no gov formed it is the only option?

Would SF/FF + others be any closer to a majority? I don't think so.

Five more years! Five more years!

At least Hutch will make it more entertaining.

Out of 7800 tally in Ros/Gal looks like Fitzmaurice and Kerrane to retain seats with a battle between FF and FG for the 3rd.
Eugene Murphy not in the running.
Thankfully only 80 votes for the 2 fascists.

Not sure of the geography of the votes tallied though.

And ignore the FG fifth instead??

In total? Just shows how vocal a tiny tiny minority are.

[Rossfan]

That was out of 7,800.
About 1% which is about what they are.

Update now 137 out of almost 13,000.
Seems Donnelly in trouble in Wicklow.
