Posters Posting

Once the posters go up the phone calls start coming. That’s my experience from two previous elections. All my poster erectors are party workers and volunteers and as a result one or two mistakes have been made. Posters going up too close to a house, or a junction, or cable ties left uncut. We try to deal with any problems as quickly as possible.

But one particular “complaint” was unusual. A lady out in Kilmoon berated me for NOT putting up enough posters around her house. I met her in Duleek yesterday outside a shop.

The others have loads up” she said, “Do you not care about us?”

I told her I’d take care of it. That’s a first for us. If you want any posters outside your house just let us know ;)


Here’s a video about the Meath / Louth boundary….

I live in Grange Rath and many people are surprised when I tell them I live in Meath. However I don't count myself as living in Drogheda as its on the way to Bettystown and not simply on the Dublin Road. I use Colpe in my address, would you think think is right, or should I be counted as a Drog?
 
Well officially your area is part of the "Drogheda environs". Many people in Grange Rath are originally from Drogheda town and have moved out a bit and would consider themselves Drogs. Drogheda's on your doorstep and it's got a fantastic cultural, retail and sporting life and I'd encourage you to use it as much as possible.
