The Sunday Business Post has two polls for us about the Irish Presidential Election. It has one poll with the 5 nominated candidates so far and one poll with the 7 candidates who will most likely be on the ballot on October 27th. In the 5 Candidate poll the 1st preference vote would look as follows: Higgins, Michael D (Lab) 27% McGuinness, Martin (SF) 20% Davis, Mary (Ind) 20% Mitchell, Gay (FG) 15% Gallagher, Sean (Ind) 15% This poll...
The Sunday Independent has two polls in it today in relation to the Presidential Election today. I am going to ignore the “less scientific, Sunday Independent/ Quantum Research” poll. The poll found support for the declared candidates as follows: Michael D Higgins 32% (Lab) David Norris 19% (Ind) Mary Davis 18% (Ind) Gay Mitchell 17% (FG) Sean Gallagher 14% (Ind) While this poll was taken before Martin McGuinness of Sinn Fein entered the race, it is still interesting. Sean...
So today we saw the first poll since the general election published in the Sunday Business Post. It was conducted by Red C. All figures are on difference since the election. The topline figures are: Fine Gael 39% (+3) Labour 18% (-1) Fianna Fail 16% (-1) Sinn Fein 11% (+1) Others 16% An interesting poll. Maybe people are regretting not voting for a majority Fine Gael government? That or is the sign that Red C over estimate Fine Gael support by...
The second last poll of the campaign will be in the Irish Indepdent by Milward Brown. The topline figures are as follows: Fianna Fail 14% (-2) Fine Gael 38% (+1) Labour 20% (nc) Green Party 1% (nc) Sinn Fein 11% (-1) Others 16% (+2) An interesting poll. Shows that Fine Gael are holding strong. Labour have managed to halt their slide, while Fianna Fail have lost some of the support they had regained. It will be interesting to see...
I have a feeling we will have a few polls this week as in we enter the last lap and the Irish Times have an Ipsos MRBI poll in tomorrows paper.

There is a poll in todays Irish Daily Star (details from Journal.ie) by OI research. It is a telephone survey of a 1,000 voters on Sunday and Monday. The topline figures are as follows: Fine Gael 39 Labour 18 Fianna Fáil 17 Sinn Fein 10 Green Party 2 Independents/others 14 It is interesting to compare it to yesterdays poll in the independent which it dosent differ too differently from. Seats would be along the lines of Fianna Fail 31...
Another week and another poll. Tomorrow sees a poll in the Irish Independent my Milward Brown. It has topline figures as follows: Fine Gael 38 (+8) Fianna Fail 12 (-4) Labour 23 (-1) Sinn Fein 10 (-3) Greens 1 Others 16 (-1) This further cements the lead taken by Fine Gael in the polls. It is also further bad news for Fianna Fail who are really beginning to hit rock bottom. Well they hope they are! The greens have really become...
A new poll has been published in today’s Sunday Business Post by Red C. It shows that Fine Gael is +3% on last weeks at 38% showing that Enda’s non appearance on Tuesday night has not hurt him at all. The poll was done on Tuesday, Wednesday and Thursday should take good account of the Debate. Crucially Fianna Fail are down 2% to 15% showing a further deterioation in their support and nearly shows very little hope of a recovery...
