    Your right my mistake, was mixing him up with a younger foley I know down that neck of the woods, but 1 out of 40 ain't bad . . .

    That would make three members of Waterford YFG contesting the upcoming local elections. John Cummins in Waterford City (convention Friday) , Aaron Doocey in Lismore and now Robbie in Carrick-on-Suir. Interesting times ahead.

    The person in question won't be elected by the public then and I'm fairly sure the thread is about people actually running for election.

    Simon Harris is FG's youngest. If Robbie runs he could be the youngest candidate in the country

    Guys, get facts correct. No Simon is not the youngest. Darren is at present, but he is from Kilkenny. Annette Larkin I believe is the youngest female candidate by a long shot.....
