Poll: Will Enda's refusal to take part in the leaders' debate damage Fine Gael's vote?

Will the empty chair change people’s minds about voting Fine Gael?

THE STAGE IS set for tonight’s Leaders’ Debate on TV3, but Fine Gael leader Enda Kenny won’t be taking part, after a public spat with moderator Vincent Browne.

Do you think this decision will change people’s minds about voting Fine Gael? Or, with 17 days to go, will other issues emerge to deflect attention from his refusal to take part?

Have your say.

Poll Results:

Yes: FG vote will be affected (540)

No: won't make a difference (365)
