It beats me why they have reverted to a Thursday. After all, they held the elections on a Friday some years back so that people who lived away from home (students, graduates and those who never transferred their viote) would have a realistic opportunity to get home in time to vote.James MerninMon, 30 Apr 2007 10:54:28 -0000http://paulmwatson.com/journal/2007/04/30/irish-elections/#comment-1282326That's the current government of Ireland for you Paul. If you're young they really don't care because let's face it someday you'll be older and then young-facing policies won't appeal to you so why bother? Personally I'm sick of it and won't be voting this year as I've lost faith in the Irish democracy to get things done. :(Jonathan BrazilMon, 30 Apr 2007 10:51:01 -0000http://paulmwatson.com/journal/2007/04/30/irish-elections/#comment-1282325I agree, I'm going to be out of the country during the elections. I'm not happy about the short notice.hellojedMon, 30 Apr 2007 10:26:04 -0000
