    Hmm, yeah SF just a tad over-represented here as it turned out...

Does this speak to a higher integrity by such posters than SF voters who clearly voted multiple-times in the poll, resulting in a situation where they are over-represented in the poll more than 2 times over while FF is under-represented 3 times over? Or is this just art imitating life.
    Remember though that Libertas and Labour were only so low because of SF's dirty tricks, had they not voted so many times all the other parties would have had higher percentages.
    To live honestly, to hurt no one, to give every one his due.

    Could someone put up a table showing that actual voting v. the p.ie poll results.
    This would demonstrate the value of internet-based, self-selecting polling/voting.

    Of course, it is possible that "A Nation Once Again" is, indeed, the best song ever written.

    The polling was, for a long time, looking fairly reflective of a likely result until, as usual, Sinn Fein supporters feel the need to highjack it, just as they did in the individual constituency polls I set up for the Euros, where in three of the four  the Sinn Fein candidates received nearly 50% of t he vote...

    Either Sinn Fein supporters are disproportionately frequent users of the internet and this site, or they have a compelling need to come out on top of internet polls...

    Has this thread not reached the end of its natural life?

    AFAICT from your posts, the CSP is a satirical joke party, much like the Monster Raving Loony party. Either that or Poe's Law is indeed true.
