Get outta here with your logic. I found myself yelling something similar when I saw Peader Tobin being interviewed on RTE

What I love about that, is despite writing in those names, they didn't actually vote for them and actually seem to imply they're voting for the three candidates actually on the ballot...

There are some publishers out there who are just as guilty about spreading blatant false information, some with Leinster House credentials that were recently called out. Part of the problem is they delete them when the truth is well known.

Completely agree, feels like such an own goal saying that about Musk on his own platform.

Any idea when the postal votes are sent out? Still not received anything at my new address despite updating it a few months before the election.

Honestly, it sounds like you don't understand how PR-STV works yourself. Your non-transferable vote means that whoever is ahead at the point your vote is dropped will have a higher chance of winning the seat. If you PREFER one candidate over the other, you should be transferring to another candidate

Yeah exactly that. There is less and less difference between the two parties at this point

Completely agree, this debate overall has been a terrible format, very little time to discuss anything with any seriousness and the moderators are preventing any real discussion by hopping from topic to topic without properly engaging a topic.
