A vote for an Independent is a vote for parish pump politics and is emblematic of what is wrong with Irish politics. If you vote for an independent you have no place criticising cronyism and clientism.

100% wrong - A vote for even a defeated independent is good because it’s a vote the winning main political parties need to win.

Under Proportional Representation, if you can predict the order of candidates being eliminated your vote is strongest and used more prudently.

Vote 1, 2, 3, 4 for any one political party is the worst way to vote and says more about you than even the Healy-Rae’s.
