Ireland goes to the polls
THE people of Ireland will vote in a general election tomorrow where the final opinion polls earlier this week show the main parties running neck and neck.
The Red C-Business Post poll showed Sinn Fein, Fine Gael, the party led by the Taoiseach Simon Harris and Fianna Fail all at about the 20 per cent mark.
Sinn Fein leader Mary Lou McDonald said that she sees a path to victory after the final opinion poll showed her party moving into second place behind Fianna Fail, Mr Harris’s coalition partner with Fine Gael dropping from first to third place.
