Red C Poll
Support for Labour has fallen (again) as Sinn Féin support increases (again)
Labour is down two to 7 per cent, Sinn Féin is up one point to 21 per cent while Fine Gael holds steady on 24.
A NEW OPINION poll has shown that Fianna Fáil and Labour have both lost support.
The Red C poll for today’s Sunday Business Post puts Labour down two points to 7% while Fianna Fáil drops one point to 18%.
Fine Gael comes out unchanged on 24% – a three point lead over Sinn Féin.
However, it also found that 19% of those who voted Fine Gael are now planning to vote for Sinn Féin – which has gone up one point to 21%.
Independents and others are up two to 30% – the Greens are up one to 3% while Lucinda Creighton’s new party on is on 1%.
The poll also looks at who support Sinn Féin and the Independents. The majority of new voters for both came from past Fine Gael voters.
The Red C poll interviewed over 1,000 adults between last Monday and Wednesday.
