What about spoilt votes, how do I do it?
This is one occasion when I'm going to the poling stations without a proper conviction of who to vote for. Thankfully I don't think the Presidency matters too much. (Apologies to those who think otherwise).
I actually feel like voting for none of the above! But as a point of principle, I believe in exercising my voting right, so will have to give my vote to someone.
My decision has been one of exclusion.
Dana? Are you kidding me? She has true convictions. But those convictions aren't mine. Plus she always sounds like she might start crying.
Mary Davis? I hate to sound sexist (but of course I am!) but I think we need a change in Aras an Uachtarain. Plus she mentioned one of the things she would like to champion is the trafficking of women. A noble cause, except I wouldn't be surprised if her idea of trafficking is similar to Ruhamma's i.e. every escort is a trafficked woman!!!
Martin McGuiness?? I reckon Sinn Fein wants to take over the country - both in the North and South. Unclear why they have decided to venture down South after years of involvement in the North . The cynic in me says power hungry politicians. Anyway he will never escape his past, and we don't need a more tribunals involving our president this time! Plus he is an ultra - socialist. His views wouldn't be far off communism IMHO.
David Norris? To be honest he had been my favourite when he was struggling to secure his nomination. However, now that I've had ample time to hear him speak, I am bored to tears! He doesn't say anything different and appears to be purely anti - establishment. Someone needs to tell him that the Presidency is part of the establishment. You can't go bad mouthing and critisizing the government when you are president.
Gay Mitchell??? Could any one be less charismatic???
Michael D?? Nothing personal, but I just can't stand his voice. Plus I think we might have to cough up an expensive state funeral if he gets elected. And I will never vote labour.
Sean Gallagher? Fianna Fail to the hilt. Manages to say a lot without saying anything. Shady banking transfers. Hence I think he will make the ideal President!
SO I think I'm going to vote Sean Gallagher no. 1. Don't know if I'll give any second preference votes yet.

The best day of your life is the one on which you decide your life is your own.
No apologies or excuses.
No one to lean on, rely on, or blame.
The gift is yours - it is an amazing journey - and you alone are responsible for the quality of it.
This is the day your life really begins! (Bob Moawad)

I don't want to vote on 7th place because u can use the transferable vote system to your advantage that way so I want to vote 1 to 6.
