The Gallagher vote don't fill out online polls, that is for certain, either that or his support has collapsed entirely, pretty sure it is at least some of the former.

He is on 8.75% here and 6.70% on politics.ie and similarly sh1t in all other current online polls I have seen.

Gallagher appeals to the gombeen rural Fianna Fail voter primarily over 40 and financially secure but illiterate in most walks of life. I called around to a neighbour who is in his mid-sixties and staunch FF to turn off the alarm on his mobile phone which kept waking him at 5am (He couldn't figure out a basic Nokia). We were talking about the election and I began the windup on the fecker, I totally shat on Gallagher infront of him and he got fine and sour and nearly had steam coming out of his ears that someone should condemn such a "Decent" man.

I consoled myself with the knowledge that his equals will soon enough all die off leaving more intelligent folk like myself to inherit the earth.

Y'know what happens if everyone does this?

That candidate doesn't get eliminated because they got a tonne of first preferences, your votes don't transfer and dear sweet holy God you've accidentally elected Dana.

Everyone doesn't do it though.

Dana ftw.

thats exactly it.
the issue ive learned over the past few weeks is not that people like gallagher are standing for election, it's that there are still enough people out there that support him to give him a platform to spout ****e, and for a second, possibly get elected.

there's a lot of people in ireland who need to get their gombeen heads examined

There was an unconfirmed exit poll that put SG as the winner.

If that's the case, Ireland deserve everything it get, EU/IMF it will just prove that stupidity doesn't go unpunished! Voting in another FFer, DISASTER!

Nah, I don't believe that. (not saying you're lying, just that I doubt the exit poll is accurate!)

Think that's what Ivan Yates has just called on Newstalk.

If Higgins has anywhere near parity with SG on 1st pref, he'll beat him when transfers are tallied.

Looking at the tallies MDH will romp home.

I didnt vote MDH, but you'd have to question the people of Ireland if Sean Gallagher has anywhere near the 1st pref votes of him or MMG or indeed Norris.

Is it that we've forgotten the balls FF have made of this country

Doesn't matter, Michael D is going to walk it.

In case there was any doubt - we've suspended betting on the Presidency. Congrats MDH!

Higgins was always gonna win.. even when Gallagher appeared to lead the polls. It'll be an interesting race for 2nd & 3rd place

I did not expect gallagher to be in second place either, I thought Mitchell might have done better. Davis or Dana last, I would go with Davis.

afternoon.

If MDH wins on first count, do they bother counting the transfers? I'm really interested to see how transfer friendly some of the candidates were...

Absolute morons in this country. We deserve all we get at the end of the day.

Watching Bertie last night being interviewed copper fastened my view on this. We deserved what came to us.
