The By-elections in Galway West and Dublin Central.

[scolairebocht]

Does anybody know why the National Party have put up no candidate in Dublin or Galway? Its probably the largest and oldest of the anti immigration parties, so that comes as a surprise.

No idea, but it is a terrible shame.

Keith Woods and others were banging on about "vote splitting" in recent elections, while completely ignoring the obvious, rampant, swaggering election rigging and even mocking people who reported it.

Steenson and Thomas are strong candidates with at least a tinge of remigration about them. Perhaps the NP didn't want to be accused of vote splitting?

In the single transferrable vote system, vote splitting is a very minor issue. In fact, running multiple candidates with tight transfers is likely to increase the overall remigration vote and increase the likelihood of someone getting elected.

National Party were possibly the only registered party calling for a spoiled vote in the presidentials, and they got 12% - the highest spolied vote ever recorded in any European election, AFAIK.

If anyone wants to gather evidence of vote rigging in these elections, I suggest going to the polling stations at closing time and following the white vans to the count centre. Don't go alone, or the Gardai Sicini will get very evil with you. It's likely that the returning officer will be involved in any vote rigging.

The biggest cock up is the NP not having a candidate in either and show that without barrett, they are a drifting dingy, and have missed the boat

Yes I think so. Whatever about the merit of having registered as a political party in this vote fraud climate, at least if you are going to go to the trouble of being so then you might as well contest the elections.

Even under Justin Barrett I think they contested every serious bye election.

Joseph Burke is the returning officer's name. What's his background?

Hopefully Enoch's brother, he'd be looking for revenge on anyone with a lefty preference

Agreed, if nothing else run a candidate for public recognition for the next general election, get the name out there. Also in dub central no independent Ireland candidate, a party that is level on polls with the social dems, but the social dems could have 2 sitting TDs come a few weeks in the one Constitutency. Shows how the right wing parties need to organize much better.

I would suggest that Independent Ireland is not really a party at all, just a bandwagon for scours to latch onto to save their hides.

Steenson put out a tweet yesterday saying that the darkie who attacked the ten year old at Citywest had a deportation order - but wasn't deported.

Kev Bakhurst at RTE and the rest of the MSM will completely ignore this, probably. They are against toxic masculinity, except when it's toxic Judaeo-darkie masculinity.They love that stuff.

Go fiucadh in Ifrinn iad!
