Could not agree more. This is my first election as a citizen of #Ireland and I'm taking it very seriously. When I was in Dublin yesterday I saw a poster for a candidate whose slogan was "IRELAND FOR THE IRISH." Not so sure I want that viewpoint representing me.

Here as in the USA, when voting in some races, it's important to think defensively.

Voting is ranked here, so in some of them I will probably hold my nose and vote FF or FG down the list to keep the racists out.
