Young Candidates for Irish Elections in 2009

Fair enough. I'd wish you luck, but the last thing I want is a councillor at the SF stand during freshers week. Makes it all the tougher for us in cumann wolfe tone...

Wouldn't necessarily agree with that to be honest. When I'm in Dublin I'm still only a phone-call away from people in the area.

Second, because of the way my timetable is structured in uni I intend to be in Kilkenny at least four nights a week. Not to mention the fact that the academic year is 24 weeks long letting me be in Kilkenny more or less full-time for the other 28.

But the reason I really disagree with you is because I know that I have the commitment to do the best possible job for my constituents regardless of where I live.

What are people saying on the doorsteps when you tell them you don't actually live in Kilkenny...?

Be very honest with you it seems to be winning more support. People are generally impressed with the fact that I want to do both especially given the distance involved.

Like I already said though I am in Kilkenny a lot more than Dublin.
