The latest Irish Times/Ipsos B&A poll suggests that the battle to lead the next Irish government will be extremely close, with the three main parties neck and neck. The poll presents a challenge to Taoiseach Simon Harris and Fine Gael, who despite a lively campaign, have not effectively engaged voters.
The latest Irish Times/Ipsos B&A poll suggests that competition to lead the next government will once again go down to the wire
Today’s findings present most obviously a challenge to the Taoiseach and Fine Gael leader Simon Harris. Judged by the results, Fine Gael has not run a campaign that has engaged and attracted voters. Rather, Harris, despite a frequently warm reception from voters on the streets and a campaign that was undoubtedly energetic, has seen individual missteps and instances of disharmony reach a huge audience through the social media channels that he has himself proved so adept at using.
The more low-key style of the Fianna Fáil leader and Tánaiste Micheál Martin – who never fails to mention that he deals in “substance” not style – has found favour with many voters perhaps worried about the future should the incoming administration of Donald Trump in the United States implement policies that are damaging to Ireland’s interests.Is remote working bad for productivity?If so, this is quite the coup.
For the smaller parties, the final few days represent the last opportunity to boost the profile of candidates. They will be mindful of the brutal arithmetic of the Irish election system, which means that a handful of votes can be the difference between triumph and failure. When candidates tell voters at the doorsteps that their votes can make all the difference, they are often right.
