    Can't imagine anyone thinking it would be ok.

    Do you think it might happen in the case of this election?

    How come? This isn't Venezuela in fairness. Or Northern Ireland pre 1968.

    I dont suppose you remember Bertie on the news, looking forward to getting an instant voting result because it would take all the stress out of the day? Bertie was great though. He have the whole software contract to one company that included the Alpha and Beta testing along with the Debug.

    Some man.

    Why is it obvious that there's a plan to rig the election? By whom?

    I don't know if there are lots of paid posters here - maybe there are, but people simply supporting a party aren't necessarily being paid to do so - they just support a party. What was it about that person's post that makes them look like they're being paid though? Doesn't look like they're affiliated with a specific party. Think they were just being sarcastic. Not sure how they were being Marxist either.

    FF top the poll with 102% of the vote. Bertie Ahern re-elected despite not standing in any constituency.

    Its obviously Denis OBrien. Governments in this country change but Denis OBrien gets his contracts (Esat, Portakabin, Water and the new reservoir in the midlands). That is what is important. To think that himself and Michael O Leary were only collecting glasses at the Bilderberg Conference a few years back.

    People who simply question you aren't being paid. It happens all the time on discussion forums in relation to any topic. I haven't even mentioned a political party (as I'm completely ambivalent to all of them) and surely if I was a shill I'd be mentioning a party or candidate

    But anyway, how is it obvious that there's election rigging going on? And by whom?

    Actually I am not a marxist, I am more of a disillusioned Nationalist. I have given up on democracy and think we should go back to the monarcy and at least we would know who we were dealing with.

    You've made some very good points. You're being trolled by idiots so best to ignore them as no salient or relevant points will be forthcoming. There'll be no vote-rigging but there'll not be much to cheer either come Feb 9th.

    They hand out those positions and fake doctorates to all and sundry, even Roy Keane has one. I am guessing I am a bit slow off the blocks.

    Jesus when you say it like that it all makes sense.

    She rigged the election in Trump's favour so that, 4 years later, she would be appointed to a university position and make a documentary. Her evil plan is all coming together muahahaha
