emm to go against my principles of not liking the seanad and vote in these elections for Dan emm
I should point out that my original intent was for the ballot to say “Software Development Researcher and Disability Activist” but the space was so small it ended up being the other way around.
Simon, just close your eyes and think of the issues. After all, if I reckon the reasons that people don’t vote for me has nothing really to do with me personally (the lies we tell ourselves) then I shouldn’t be thinking that the votes are for me if they do vote for me.
Well I do agree with the Disability activism bit and I like software. Emm
Will Irish Election be covering the Seanad Elections, cause i can never remember them been covered by anyone else! It would be interesting like
All I can hope is that we do not have daily or weekly tracking polls!
Well Stephen I emailed Ivana Bacik a few questions a few months ago and got no reply. So we will see
Oddly enough I emailed her about 6 months ago about the fact that the education section (or any other sector for that matter) on her website didn’t even mention the extension of the franchise to the likes of UL, DCU, the ITs (we have to get a better name for the Institutes of Technology as a groups than the ITs) and other colleges and also got no reply. I guess educational equality stops at the water’s shore when it comes to the self interest of some TCD candidates.
Funny enough Dan I asked a similar question.
I’ll vote for you Dan.
Cool, thanks for that.
Isn’t it great we have an intellectual elite to keep the whimsy of the unwashed masses in check?
The private sector deserves to be rewarded for their contribution to our booming economy. Taxes and Rates must be reduced to reward the main driving force of our economic recovery over the last 10 years.
Fianna Fail have delivered on the economy over the last 10 years. They are the best party to have in Government and have the best track record.
As a TCD Seanad candidate I would be happy to answer any questions you have.
I do not mention extending the franchise for the six university Senators directly on my website http://www.stephendouglas.org
But I do refer (http://www.stephendouglas.org/policies.html) to how I will help the DIT become a full-status university.
This would, at least, mean that when the Government finally does get around (during the next five years this does seem likely, although I am told it ahs seemed so at teh beginning of most sessions over the past three decades) to implementing the 1979 referndum in which the people of Ireland voted to extend the franchise to graduates of all Irish universities, at least non-DU DIT grads would get the vote too.
I think Sean will get my vote.
Attention – Mark Connolly
Is that picture on the ballot a p!ss pull ? It looks like someone drew the hat and ‘tache on with a marker.
Pancho Villa wouldn’t be in it.
It seems that who ever set up the site has not been reading the newspapers. Ike Efobi and Shay Conway do not have any profession to their names shame on you lot.
I am a Geologist by qualification.
I now primarily work as a research analyst and also as a commercial mediator.

Shay Conway – TCD Seanad Candidate 2007
