TRENDING – SHOULD MICHAEL D RUN FOR A 2ND TERM?
We thought it would be interesting to get the views of the Irish public on whether Michael D Higgins should run again for president? Accuracy took to the streets to hear what the Irish people had to say on the matter.
Here is what we found
- 58% of Irish adults believe that he should run again with approximately 1 in 4 (27%) of the view that he should not
- This positive endorsement is consistent across men and women, all age and income groups and across all regions
So it would seem that the public is happy with our President’s performance to date and the majority
would back him running for a 2nd term.
But lest we forget a week is a long time in politics!
