    Wonder how many more registrars were in a similar position?
    Josephine Duffy, the former Monaghan county registrar who is involved in a controversial e-voting machine storage deal, has admitted she “coerced” her nephew into building a shed which won a €542,000 contract.
    Despite being in charge of finding storage for the voting machines, Duffy had claimed she was not personally involved in the process that led to Martin Duffy, her nephew, being chosen in 2004 to store 288 units at an annual cost of €21,685 for 25 years.
    But in an interview recorded earlier this year, Duffy suggests she asked for the warehouse to be built.
